FYI, we help nonprofits learn more about where their donors "live" online by appending social networking data to their files. I hope you'll check it out! http://emailforimpact.com/index.php/services/info/social_networking_data_append/ Jocelyn Connie,

I was mulling over this very same question today, so your suggestions could not be more timely for me. Do you have any thoughts around handling this issue when the potential audience is thought not to be very engaged with social media? You are a Godsend, Connie.

My opinion is that if you're unsure about the value of the community building role, then ease into it part-time. That's better than doing nothing at all.
