&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Understand Social Networks and Make Them Work for You&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Not all social networks are created equal. And nonprofit organizations need to know the differences between them before they can get one to work for them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a class="" href="http://fsg.fundraisingsuccessmag.com/story/story.php?sid=107470&amp;amp;var=story" target="_blank"&gt;Read the entire article here.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Online Communications — Pipeline to More Revenue&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Nonprofit organizations that want to maximize donations had better be brushing up on and putting into action the latest online fundraising communications that are set to explode this year, says Tim Oleary, vice president of the Malvern, Pa.-based McPherson Associates, a direct-marketing and communications agency that specializes in nonprofit fundraising programs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a class="" href="http://fsg.fundraisingsuccessmag.com/story/story.php?sid=107469&amp;amp;var=story" target="_blank"&gt;Read the entire article here.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

During the session “Web 2.0 — A Buzzword Demystified” at The Blackbaud Interactive Internet Symposium on May 22 in New York, Mosawi defined Web 2.0 as the “business revolution in the computer industry caused by the move to the Internet as a platform, and an attempt to understand the rules for success on that new platform.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a class="" href="http://www.fundraisingsuccessmag.com/story/story.bsp?sid=107468&amp;amp;var=story" target="_blank"&gt;Read the entire article here.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a class="" href="http://enewsgv.fundraisingsuccessmag.com/eLP/?PMC=WEB&amp;amp;PUB=FS2&amp;amp;GRP=1" target="_blank"&gt;Subscribe to Giving 2.0 here.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://forums.blackbaud.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=31213" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://forums.blackbaud.com/blogs/blackbaudnews/archive/tags/Internet+Symposium/default.aspx">Internet Symposium</category><category domain="http://forums.blackbaud.com/blogs/blackbaudnews/archive/tags/Blackbaud+Interactive/default.aspx">Blackbaud Interactive</category><category domain="http://forums.blackbaud.com/blogs/blackbaudnews/archive/tags/Andrew+Mosawi/default.aspx">Andrew Mosawi</category><category domain="http://forums.blackbaud.com/blogs/blackbaudnews/archive/tags/Steve+MacLaughlin/default.aspx">Steve MacLaughlin</category></item><item><title>Press Release: Blackbaud Interactive Internet Symposium Explores Nonprofit Web Strategy</title><link>http://forums.blackbaud.com/blogs/blackbaudnews/archive/2008/05/27/press-release-blackbaud-interactive-internet-symposium-explores-nonprofit-web-strategy.aspx</link><pubDate>Tue, 27 May 2008 15:01:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">f90a95a0-00e2-4810-8af8-0bbdde08f853:31011</guid><dc:creator>Melanie Mathos</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><wfw:commentRss xmlns:wfw="http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/">http://forums.blackbaud.com/blogs/blackbaudnews/rsscomments.aspx?PostID=31011</wfw:commentRss><comments>http://forums.blackbaud.com/blogs/blackbaudnews/archive/2008/05/27/press-release-blackbaud-interactive-internet-symposium-explores-nonprofit-web-strategy.aspx#comments</comments><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Charleston, S.C.
