Venturing into Social Actions
Hello, everyone!
I want to introduce myself: my name is Mariel, I'm a philosophy student who wants to make the world a better place, and I am now 'interning' with Social Actions. Even though Christine already wrote about my presence in Social Actions here, I thought it was time for me to start making use of this space to keep track of the process, and to be in touch with all of you.
As I commented on Christine's post, it has been a great experience for me so far. I have learned a lot about Social Actions and its ideas, I have had the opportunity to reflect on the ideas involved in the world of philanthropy and activism, and I have also put some skills into practice.
I have been working on a communications review of Social Actions. As I commented on that post, too, we want to present the content of Social Actions in a way that is clear and effective without sacrificing its diversity and deepness. Maybe a way to do this is by providing a guided tour through the website to empower the users to then navigate faster and more easily on their own? This review is documented in this wiki page.
I am looking forward to seeing how this all shapes up, and will be very happy to hear your comments on the process and on Social Actions. The point of this exercise is to make Social Actions easier to use for the public, so anything you can tell us about it is going to be very valuable!
You can get in touch with me here, on My Social Actions, or at magarciamo at gmail dot com.

- Thanks for the clarification. It did take me a while to figure out Ning. So many of the groups have different apps that it can still be confusing.

Hey, Leah!!
What I meant on this post is that the goal of the review is to make the navigation of socialactions.com easier for its visitors. But now that you bring up the My Social Actions and Ning topics, did it take you a while to get used to Ning? I think it got me a while to get used to the first group I joined on it.

- It's easy for me to use, but I have been using Ning groups for a few years now.
