Carnival of Nonprofit Consultants comes to UK Fundraising
Howard Lake | 22 November 2007 | News
The Carnival of Nonprofit Consultants, a weekly blog roundup drawing together expert advice from nonprofit and charity consultants around the world, will next week be hosted by Bryan Miller’s ‘Giving in a digital world’ blog on UK Fundraising. Contributions are welcome before Monday 26 November on Bryan’s theme of “Engaging with supporters through online social networks”.
According to Wikipedia “a blog carnival is a type of blog event. It is similar to a magazine, in that it is dedicated to a particular topic, and is published on a regular schedule, often weekly or monthly. Each edition of a blog carnival is in the form of a blog article that contains permalinks links to other blog articles on the particular topic.”
Bryan explains how it works: “Each week a different host blogger sets a topic for the carnival and other bloggers submit posts on that theme – with the best seven being highlighted on the host’s blog. We can’t promise that fame and fortune will follow selection for the carnival – but sharing your thoughts on a topic in this way will certainly bring a lot of new people to your blog!”
