Virtual Social Media Surgery for the September 27th NonProfit Commons Meeting

Posted Thu, 09/26/2013 - 18:14 by Rhiannon Chatnoir

This Friday, September 27th, TechSoup's Nonprofit Commons in Second Life meeting will welcome back past NPC presenters Opal Lei and Jeroen Frans, along with our own Joyce Bettencourt, to answer your social and digital media questions.

 

Want to figure out how to connect a database to your virtual or web project? Have questions on what software to use for capture of machinima or editing video footage? Curious on how you can integrate various social media tools into your nonprofit or organization's strategy? Then come to this week's NonProfit Commons in Second Life meeting to ask your digital and social media questions to our panel of media surgeons.

 

Immediately following the meeting we will take a virtual field trip to the third annual International Disability Rights Affirmation Conference. More details at: http://blog.virtualability.org/2013/09/IDRAC2013.html and schedule at: http://www.virtualability.org/idrac2013

This Friday, September 20th Nonprofit Commons is happy to have Beth O'Connell (Beth Ghostraven in SL) lead our Mentor's Central in a presentation on how to use social media such as Google+, Facebook, Twitter, and Second Life group notices, to attract more people to your events. These tools can be used to promote any type of event, virtual, online or in person.

We will also feature a recap of the recent OpenSimulator Community Conference (OSCC13) which took place September 7th & 8th, 2013. OSCC is an annual conference that focuses on the community around the OpenSimulator software. This year's conference featured two days of presentations, workshops, keynote sessions, and social events across diverse sectors of the OpenSimulator user base and archives can be found at: http://conference.opensimulator.org/2013/streaming/.
