 They are otherwise identical in virtually every way, so readers really can’t tell one from the other.

 Using these methods, I was able to actively participate in approximately 25 Facebook groups worldwide (including 4 condition-specific groups where I was admin), multiple Facebook pages, and 3 Twitter feeds with thousands of followers.
 I used “push” tools in Constant Contact to push content to the pages and Twitter, and then I relayed that content to “friendly” groups worldwide.  All of that content was very easy to distribute, and the degree to which it was welcomed was directly related to the relationships developed with the other independent groups’ admins.

 <br>'''Re-tweet''' - It's that simple.  If someone says something funny, interesting or thought-provoking, share it with your network.  It's a great way to get them to notice you and maybe remember you the next time you want your own content re-tweeted.  Always make sure to start a re-tweet with "RT @username:"  Twitter doesn't do this automatically when you click the re-tweet button; if you just click the button, your RT won't show up in their @ feed, so you won't get credit for helping out!
 <br>'''Get involved in the dialogue''' - Twitter is not a place for wallflowers.  It's also not a place to constantly promote yourself or your brand. There is a place for that, but self-promotion should make up less than 10% of your tweets, on average.  If you participate in the conversation and post content that is valuable to your followers, you will form lasting relationships which can translate to valuable partnerships on the web and in the real world.

 <br>'''@''': Putting the @ sign before a twitter username (i.e. @geneticalliance) will create a link to that person's Twitter page within your tweet
 <br>'''RT''' or '''Re-tweet''': When a user re-broadcasts a tweet written by someone else.  These posts usually begin with "RT @twitteruser:" to give credit to the person who wrote the original tweet.
 <br>'''Hashtag''' or '''#''': This is a way of denoting a keyword of conversation topic.  The word after the hashtag is clickable and will bring you to a display of every other Tweet which contains the same hashtag.  These can be used to create a meta-dialogue or to track the conversation about a certain topic.  Sometimes groups will schedule chats on Twitter, which are identified by a specific hashtag.  Users can join in the chat just by clicking on the hashtag or by using a third-party site such as [http://www.tweetchat.com Tweet Chat].

 As an approved Partner, you'll be granted access to a different background ADMIN page that through a portal page that only organizations are be able to access.  From there, you'll be able to "designate" which of all the Cause Pages out there is the "official" Cause Page of the organization from that ADMIN area. You can still need to create your own Cause page from the User side as a leader of the organization and then designate THAT one as the "official" Cause page.  Or choose None as "official" and just receive donations as the chosen beneficiary of the multiple pages created to support your cause.

 Facebook has many different ways to be involved as an organization, such as Causes and Groups. It might be easiest to just start with your own personal profile so you understand what your constituents are seeing from the user side. "Friend them,"

This [http://www.connectioncafe.com/posts/2009/february/things-to-do-in-facebook.html article] also discusses how non-profits can begin to use Facebook in general.

 Twitter is even bigger than this, and it involves lots of one-on-one engagement to build followers and pay your dues with those followers.  Suffice it to say that Twitter is all about mutual back scratching.  I’ll reserve that for another time.

 If you are using your personal profile, the one with photos of your cat and thoughts on the upcoming election, stop.  You’re bound to alienate lots of people with your “other” posts.
