Blogging for Good

Hey All!

As you guys are getting more comfortable with blogging I want to introduce you to just how important blogging is becoming in our media-crazed world.

Listed below are links to some blogs that focus on social change and service. There is some awesome information in them.

Have Fun Do Good

Global Giving

Change Blogger Network


The web is really great resource for information (as you all know-- hello Wikipedia) but have you guys ever stopped to think about how using the web the right way could further social and policy change?! Here are some other websites for you to browse that really address the work you all are and will be doing:

Service Nation-- Blake made reference to this briefly in his blog post about what McCain and Obama had to say about service. This summit brought together some of the most influential politicians in our country. See what it's about and see how it effects YOU. (I promise it does)

World Changing-- and online magazine with all things Change.

Idealist.Org-- For those of you who are thinking about your future, this is the website to visit.

So Just-- If you are leading reflection at an All Bonner Meeting-- this is a collection of quotes/speeches etc...

One -- Just an example of the kind of global campaigns out there for you to learn about.

Please remember I'm not advocating the policies of these websites or bloggers-- I'm just offering you some resources to help you begin to form your own thoughts about our world.

I encourage everyone out there to post their own resources as you come across them.

I'm really proud of you guys for seeing the need for service and being so excited to get out into the community. I look forward to all the great conversation that is to come!

See you all soon.
