Techsoup (the site that provides tech advice to nonprofits) has published an article on What is Web 2.0 anyway? covering blogs, RSS, tagging, social bookmarking and AJAX. The author Alexandra Krasne writes:

Web 2.0 tools are important, but their impact goes much deeper than their gadget-y novelty might suggest. Individuals and organizations alike are finding new and increasingly effective ways of connecting through Web 2.0 technology. This is the human side of this technical transformation.

  Even the smallest organization has a story to share and voices to amplify. Web 2.0 can help you be heard. This new Web of connections is already allowing nonprofit supporters to build movements for social, environmental, economic, and political change. Don’t let your movement leave you behind.”

As a blogger and an entrepreneur, I strongly believe that the emergence of these social technologies (the so-called Web 2.0 trends) will change the ways nonprofits and foundations work and thrive in the Information Age.
