Makin' Waves

GetActive, NetSquared and Squidoo have created a list of the 59 smartest nonprofit organizations online today - and Greenpeace made it to #1 with the Defending Our Oceans website!

We know it's good, hell we know it's probably the best website that any NGO has right now but it's always very encouraging to see that others like it this much and in light of this achievement I want to give a big thanks to Adele ( a very good friend of mine :-) for all her hard work creating this site and managing it for more than year now.

"These charities were chosen for their excellence in online storytelling and collaboration with their donors. We didn't play favorites to one cause over another, nor did we look at their fundraising goals or number of members. Instead, these organizations are winners because of their web 2.0 smarts and a willingness to engage their constituents far beyond asking them to dig into their pockets.

These are organizations that give their volunteers and members a voice and get out of the way. They're pros at mobilizing awareness online. They're experimentors. Innovators. On a mission. They're fearless."
