Blogs for Online Learning and Training

Rosetta has a great post about blogs for online learning. This reminded me that I learned at the online learning session at NTC that blogs are a form of learning.

Right now, I mainly see these types of posts from bloggers who write about technology, communications, and fundraising in the nonprofit sector.

Here are some blogs that illustrate this:

• Beth's Blog


• Getting Attention


• Nonprofit Communications


• Katya's Non-Profit Marketing Blog


• Wild Apricot Blog


• Donor Power Blog

There are also some technology companies who work with nonprofits who write entries about how to use their product(s).

I haven't heard of any organizations using blogs for training, but I hope to see this in the future.

Nonprofit Related Facebook Applications

The use of facebook in the nonprofit sector has recently been one of the top topics in nonprofit blogs. I wrote about the potential facebook has for nonprofits in November in my entry titled How Nonprofits Can Use Facebook. Since then, Facebook started something new called Facebook Applications.

Bl'ong has a great entry about this titled Top 12 Nonprofit Facebook Applications.


What other Facebook Applications are nonprofit related?
