In a November 29, 2007 article, Reuters reported,

"Worldwide mobile telephone subscriptions reached 3.3 billion -- equivalent to half the global population . . ."

Some nonprofits and NGOs are using mobile phones and SMS to get the word out about their cause, but many are not, which leads to this month's Net2ThinkTank question:

How Can Nonprofits and NGOs Use Mobile Phones and SMS for Social Change?

Share your advice, case studies and ideas for how nonprofits and NGOs can better utilize mobile phones and SMS for their work, or why they shouldn't, in a blog post.

Please tag your post, "net2thinktank" and send a link to it to bbravo@techsoup.org by Wednesday, February 13th, Noon PST.

If you don't have a blog, but would like to contribute to the Net2ThinkTank, write a post here, on the Net2 Community Blog. Any registered user can post on it. Here's how.

Need inspiration? Check out the great round-up of ideas from last month's Net2ThinkTank question, "How Can Nonprofits Use Twitter? Should They Even Bother?"
