review 1: i'd been reading beth's blog for a while, it had sparked my thinking, i'd enthusiastically forwarded articles to colleagues and friends. i had high hopes and expectations of this book, but found that for me, unfortunately the content was much more engaging online. the translation to book format left in decontextualised online references (most notably: to content in a sidebar that didn't exist in the print) and didn't introduce enough framework to allow the series of ideas to hang together as a whole. and i don't know, if you're going to bother making a book object these days, i think it's worth investing in nice typesetting. having said all this, i'll still be pointing colleagues towards blog entries these authors have written, and might recommend the book for the more tec... morehnophobic.
review 2: Are you interested in exploring the world of social media and making it work for your organization? This is the book for you. Each chapter provides you with a distinct part of an overall plan to become networked and sprinkled with advice that is easy to incorporate into your working model. This is a must read for any nonprofit organization who is up for meeting the challenge of an increasingly networked world. less
