We're launching the N2Y4 Reflection Forum!  On the second day of the N2Y4 Conference, participants spent time gathering and discussing their "a-ha!" moments and open questions that came out of the previous day and a half of collaboration, learning, and sharing in San Jose.  We gathered all the responses and have aggregated them to keep the conversation going.  Using the N2Y4 Reflection Forum, you can comment on and vote for different ideas and questions—you can even add your own ideas. 

Check out the N2Y4 Reflection Forum and learn more.

When reading the invite from Britt for this Net2ThinkTank, I was reminded of a recent comment that I made on Beth's Blog about Twitter. Many people don't realize that Twitter isn't just for broadcasting little bits of information, it's also great for finding new stuff too. A nonprofit organization may not be ready to Twitter their latest news and events, but they can still use Twitter to find individuals who have an interest in their own cause or mission. My favorite Twitter search tool is Terraminds Twitter Search because it's responsive and allows you to subscribe to search results with RSS.

So, here's how it happened.  Our own Jody Mahoney (that's her smiling face right there) emailed Doug Jacquier of CISA to ask him our four questions.  Doug blogged his thoughts which promted a nice conversation in the comments and also started David Wallace at lifekludger to contribute his ideas.  David writes: "...it is about making the platform more accessible to individuals and that thereby makes it more equitable. It is that change that makes the development of ‘community’ more possible." Mike Seyfang at learndogpup also has some thoughts. Mike says what's really new is that "there are significant changes in what people can PUBLISH and how they can SUBSCRIBE to pretty much anything."
