This document outlines Dave Weinberg's vision for using social media advocacy effectively. It discusses that a vision needs a roadmap, goals, and stakeholders. Passion is also important to find successes and enable others. Various social media tools are described as being one-to-many or one-to-one in messaging and relationship building. Developing relationships is key, like participating in early adopter groups. Case studies show how viral messages or fundraising can succeed. An overall strategy is advised to engage networks and track engagement.
