Could you make a list of what advantages this would have?

It seems that say, Media Outreach takes on a different dimension than VIP Outreach really. I mean, eventually we will probably want to take media outreach down the road toward considering what we will need to do to get a publicist. We would reach out to the media for more specific things that could probably use the focus of a team scouted for and dedicated most directly to that.
Twitter and facebook could go in to internetworking, but they are so big that they are almost like satellite imminst's. Once project leaders commit to engage those sections that Im leaning toward proposing they get their own team sub forums. Internetworking is designed to go in to places that have no, or not enough earmarks of the cause in them. Twitter and facebook seem more stand alone. I mean say, if we put twitter and facebook in there, then why not maybe put also say, the chapters project and the newsletter in there as well? Maybe twitter and facebook could go in there though, what do you all think?

and this skype module: http://drupal.org/node/20911
Did somebody already work with this? I see yesterday that John Schloendorn had a skype icon next to his name here in imminst. I thought maybe there was a way to enable it individually, like how in your profile it says things like, "Whats your ICQ #?__________________" But I dont see that option.
Edit: wow, after posting this, I see that the skype icon even appears next to his name when you just write it someplace in imminst. I didnt put that there. It appeared automatically.

And Mind you do the twitter? Then we want to look into the skype module too. I see that, it seems, that anybody who has skype, already has it partially keyed up to imminst through ipb some how automatically.

I linked the fan page to twitter. However, I was just wondering about this set-up. Can any fan post anything about Imminst at the fan page. If so, then linking would not be good. However, if it is just admins that can post then we are alright.

I'm relatively new to this Imminst program, in that I haven't been on here in a long time, but I was wondering how I might be able to get involved in the VIP Outreach Program, and what this process necessitates. I am very proficient at writing/editing, and I would be more than willing to write or edit any letters that you might be sending out. Additionally, if there is anything else that I can do to contribute to the promotional aspects of this, please do not hesitate to contact me at any time by either messaging me on here or at the following address: siderius_andromedae@yahoo.com. Thank you so much, and I am absolutely honoured to be able to participate in this with all of you. Thanks so much again!!
Yours,
Lauren
I'm all for anykind of outreach to inform the public...I like these ideas.

I'm volunteering for Dave Gobel at MF just recently, and what he is looking for that org, imminst could be looking for, for our purposes too.
There are some non-profits that use their Twitter accounts to donate, being a script that others click on to donate, on the Twitter page.
I'm trying to learn more about how to do this, and if any of you have discussed, and know how to donate on Twitter itself, that could really help imminst. I know you can always click on a link to the org itself, but perhaps aesthetically this would look better and would obviously be quicker and easier to interface.
The other donation idea is through mobile phone texting donations like the Red Cross did with Haiti.
Here is a link to the best summary of how this works: http://mobileactive....ile-fundraising
In that summary they talk about the way the money gets to the orgs, the contractual agreements, fees, and 7 steps to get started including the best way to go about it for your org.
I talked with an employee at Causecast, an ASP, (Application Service Provider, and it seems like they have the cheapest deal, but it's still 99 a month, while also the org itself would take out 50 cents per donation.
So, if anyone here knows a way to do this much cheaper, or if we don't have to use an ASP, that would be really important to know. In fact not having to go through an ASP would be ideal.
But, obviously Haiti raised many millions of dollars, so it's something definitely worth considering.
Brokenportal,
I know you are big into fundraising, so if you happen to know about these two things discussed that would be fantastic.
edit: Causecast is not an ASP, they're some other provider, still it's all very expensive.

I think this idea makes sense to implement.
Is this what your getting at Eric?: for example,
ImmInst.org Forums- Action- Projects and teams - Outreach- then the list of subforums in the outreach would be: VIP outreach, Internetworking team, all the ones you listed, etc-

As was suggested earlier in the "idea", it would be nice to have a point person to handle almost ALL social media and sharing updates. Any volunteers?
