My report on "Best Practices for Non-profits in Second Life" is out!
I am super excited to announce that the report I prepared for Global Kids on "Best Practices for Non-profits in Second Life" is now out on the interwebs for your downloading pleasure. Global Kids is simultaneously releasing my report, as well as the excellent parallel report on best practices for education in SL by Cathy Arreguin.
Support for these reports was provided by the Digital Media and Learning Initiative of the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation. MacArthur not only provided the financial support that made these reports possible, but also excellent feedback and advice that was essential to shaping them.
Huge thanks to my friends and colleagues in the SL non-profit community who provided much of the content of this report, as well as essential commentary on the first drafts, particularly my buddy Glitteractica Cookie of Techsoup. Of course, all errors, misrepresentations and inexcusable omissions are my own.

The full title is "Holy Meatballs of the Divine Spongiform" if you can believe it. Yes, we are a super serious organization.

Many thanks for sharing this Rik - it's really useful stuff to have written out in this form, and will certainly help develop discussion on an NGO coalition project we're working on (Union Island - www.slunions.org).
