What impact does the widespread adoption of broadband have on social organizing via the Web? How does this vary globally?

This is one of the questions we’ll be discussing today with some of the top women leaders on the topic of Video Activism. I’ll be joined by Matisse Bustos Hawkes from WITNESS.org, Erica Priggen from Free range Studios and Ramya Raghavan, YouTube Nonprofit Program as part of the second annual Women Who Tech TeleSummit, which brings together some of the most talented women today who are using technology to change the world.

For those of you who would like to view the videos please access the slides we’re referencing, here are the resources, or want to continue the conversation please share your comments and questions.

Now that you’re back home from the Nonprofit Technology Conference, it’s time to start putting some of those great ideas into practice. Here is some help with links to all of our sessions and workshops at NTC09.

You Made a Video, Now What?
Michael Hoffman, See3 CEO, talked about redefining “viral”, hosting options, and distributing your video content online. Folks from YouTube and Flip Video Spotlight were in attendance for Michael’s session, and added to an engaging discussion around these issues.

New Video Platform for Nonprofits
We unveiled our partnership with Kaltura, the first open-source video platform, to provide exceptional video solutions to nonprofits. It was exciting to share this platform with the community and listen to the real needs of the sector. We’re looking into some of the questions posed in this session and will update ASAP.

Blogging for Nonprofits
Shirley Sexton, See3 Director of Interactive Marketing & Fundraising, led this workshop which helped nonprofit staff determine if a blog is a worthwhile addition to their particular organization’s online communications mix. If so, she guided them how to determine the key elements of topic, tone, frequency, layout, and more.

Introduction to Video
Stacy Laiderman, See3 Producer, led two hands-on video trainings as part of the WeAreMedia workshops on the first day of the training. Participants learned the ins-and-outs of pre-production, storytelling, and shooting. Next time we’ll make sure there’s time for editing!
