Notes de l'éditeur
This is our agenda – we’ll pause along the way for questions.
Scaffolding by depth of relationship is a familiar framework for many nonprofits – whether it is donors or activists have tactics that move people up the ”Ladder of Engagement.” This is how it plays out on Facebook – you want to get people to move from “passive attention” to “loving” you Facebook so they will tell other people about your work.Aliza Sherman http://gigaom.com/collaboration/how-to-know-a-good-fan-on-facebook/
