I am covering the session entitled, “Measuring Impact in Online Communities,” led by Scott Moore, formerly of <a href="http://schwablearning.org/" target="_blank">Schwab Learning</a>, an online community dedicated to parents of children with learning difficulties. Scott is leading a discussion about the lessons he and his team learned from trying to measure the social impact of this online community, which closed its doors after several years in operation.</p> <p> Live blogging is a practice of careful listening, and I have a long way to go in that area! So if you see something that I misunderstood or misreported, please post a comment/correction.</p><p><a href="http://www.netsquared.org/blog/richmedium/measuring-impact-online-communities">read more</a></p> http://www.netsquared.org/blog/richmedium/measuring-impact-online-communities#comments n2y3 n2y3media social impact Tue, 27 May 2008 20:08:33 -0400 richmedium 14375 at http://www.netsquared.org http://www.netsquared.org/blog/sophia2/net2con-feedback-session-5-social-impact <ul> <li>projects<br /> <ul> <li>HELP</li> <li>Freecycle Network</li> <li>Big Brothers, Big Sisters<p><a href="http://www.netsquared.org/blog/sophia2/net2con-feedback-session-5-social-impact">read more</a></p> http://www.netsquared.org/blog/sophia2/net2con-feedback-session-5-social-impact#comments big brothers big sisters feedback freecycle network help kabissa n2y2 social impact Wed, 30 May 2007 15:34:39 -0400 sophia2 6849 at http://www.netsquared.org http://www.netsquared.org/blog/sophia2/net2con-feedback-session-4-social-impact <p>liveblogging for the social impact track of feedback session 4.
