Over the last few weeks, I have been busy setting up, organizing and rearranging a whole lotta stuff. Most, if not all have been for the many organizations that I volunteer for and am very active in.
I have been using current web tools for most of it. Trying to put tedious tasks online for simplification to engaging users to make use of the web to further and/or aid the communication of the cause at hand.
Here is a quick run-through. It make help your volunteer efforts.
Transforming Toronto- setup
a blog to help those interested stay in touch with up-to-date information (yup, included email and RSS alerts). Using the blogger platform also makes it easier for the author(s) to publish information without having to know HTML or both the web master.
HRW Toronto Network
- with so many events taking place in the fall of 2007, it became hard to keep organize lists, to do's, event locations and communications. Simple access and sharing of the google docs platform make it easier to know what is happening, share lists and keep contact information in a central easy-to-access location.
AMA Toronto Chapter- The new year is upon us and the AMA Chapter has a plethora of events set to be released. With that said, it was time to get things ready with event registration using eventbrite, keeping the site up-to-date with
Vdot Media and getting the email newsletter organized for a September launch date.
