[liberationtech] Shameless promotion: "The LAST Virtual Volunteering Guidebook"

[Jayne Cravens]

I see Danah's blatant groveling and raise to shameless promotion.

MY book, "The LAST Virtual Volunteering Guidebook", was just published 
last week. It's available through Energize, Inc., the largest publisher 
of volunteerism-related books.

My co-author and I wrote it not only to help introduce the concept of 
virtual volunteering, in all its forms - crowdsourcing, micro 
volunteering, ementoring, etc. - to organizations, but also, to help 
organizations already engaging with online volunteers, to improve and 
expand their virtual volunteering activities, including activities 
related to Liberationtech's focus on tech, democracy, freedom, human 
rights and development.

In conjunction with the revised guidebook is the Virtual Volunteering 
Wiki, a free online resource and collaborative space for sharing 
resources regarding virtual volunteering.

Even if you don't buy the book, have a look at the wiki - I've toyed 
with the idea of creating a section specifically on online volunteers in 
advocacy work - even if it just links to what's already out there. So if 
you have suggestions, lay them on me.

Danah said "Fingers crossed that y'all will find it useful and 
interesting."

Same for me. (And Danah, I'll be buying your book, FYI, because teen 
use of the Internet is of huge interest to me).

And I see Danah's hug and I give a KISS. On the MOUTH.
