Social Media Expert Volunteering Opportunity

June 3, 2009

0

I know, I know, another volunteering opportunity. But this one is a great portfolio-builder and you’d be helping out a great organization, so if you’re a social media practitioner, take a look. You can see the posting on their site at VolunteerVancouver as well. This one came straight to my social media inbox, bloggingclasses@gmail, thanks […]

Love is a Many Splendored Thing: Call for Volunteers

June 3, 2009

0

From a SEARCHgrad email. I don’t post most of the volunteer “opportunities” I get, because mostly they’re just a chance to work for free and thus reinforce the class system (welfare recipients are not technically allowed to volunteer, as it takes away from their work search time. They are thus unable to accept most internships, […]

Vancouver Changecamp June 20

June 2, 2009

0

I initially volunteered to help with Changecamp, but warned them at the beginning I wouldn’t be able to help pull it off in May, and the way May turned out I had no chance to help out when they switched it to June, either. So the least I can do is post this, eh? VanChangeCamp […]

Since from day to day it looks like I will/won’t be in town for the Shebeen Club meeting on June the 15th, I’ve asked Ian Alexander Martin to take over in my stead. Naturally, should I be in town on the evening in question, I’ll expect him to give up the scepter of leadership but […]

Green Inner-City Cluster Kickoff

June 1, 2009

I’m sitting at Workspace looking out over Crab Park (the green space formerly known as Portside Park, if only to bureaucrats at City Hall who just couldn’t give up control long enough to use the name people had been using for it for ten years) thinking that the much-ballyhoo’d Carrall Street Greenway consists primarily of […]

Pimp My Blog Practical tips and tools for increasing your readership and influence, and applies to any blogging platform (with the exception of Tumblr, which is really only good for talking to the voices inside your head in my opinion).
