If you are doing work in the social sector and want people to know about it, this workshop is for you. "Blogging for People Who Should" is both an introduction to the science of blogging (the original 'social media') and a workshop on the art of telling your story online in an authentic and engaging way. Over the course of four evenings- March 10, 17, 24 & 31, you will learn how to:

* put together a basic blogging plan that works for you
* find and use the blogging tools that will work for you
* join and initiate conversations on the web
* make sure your message is being heard by your target audience
* extend the reach of your blog with other tools (including twitter and facebook)
* monitor and measure the impact of your efforts

Eric Squair has been blogging, and teaching people to blog, at organizations such as Greenpeace Canada and Make Poverty History, since 2004.  He works out of the Centre for Social Innovation, facilitating email, web and social media capacity and strategy for non profits and independent businesses.
