We launched Socialbrite in July 2008, back in the heyday of social media, as an educational resource, guide and consultancy to help nonprofit and social good organizations learn how to use the power of the crowd to advance their goals.
It’s hard to believe now, but in 2007-2008, most people had never heard of the term social media.
Well, that changed fast. By fall 2008, “social media” was the hot new buzz phrase. And Socialbrite was there to help with activism, advocacy, and advice on everything from apps to storytelling techniques to tutorials on corporate social responsibility and social enterprises. Our Sharing Center won kudos and awards and Socialbrite received a number of honors from the nonprofit community for the service it provided.
But as we approach our 16th birthday, we need to shut things down. We’ll keep the site up for a while longer, so if you have some favorite articles or resources, please download them now.
Founder J.D. Lasica is heading up two different tech startups, Cruiseable and Authors A.I., as well as pursuing a career as an author. And the original Socialbrite team of social media experts has been pulled in new directions. Social media itself is having a bit of a midlife crisis, but there are plenty of other sites out there to fill the gap and help nonprofits and social enterprises fulfill their worthy missions.
