5 Ways to Weave Every Element of Your Nonprofit's Story onto Pinterest

5 Ways to Weave Every Element of Your Nonprofit's Story onto Pinterest | Just Story It | Scoop.it
From www.nonprofithub.org - May 21, 2012 9:27 AM
The only nonprofit marketing trend hotter than storytelling is visual storytelling. And the social media site Pinterest, a virtual bulletin board for interesting web pages and pictures, lends itself to visual storytelling techniques.


I like these ideas here! They will definitely get you thinking more about how to effectively use Pinterest for sharing your organization's story -- whether you are a nonprofit or for-profit enterprise.


Now if only Pineterest would let you group photos together within boards you could REALLY tell your stories better. I hope they add that functionality soon.


In the meantime, create your boards and start pinning! Then check out the Scoop.it material by my friends and colleagues Jan Gordon and Michele Smorgon called Pinterest Watch for all the tips and tricks for leveraging Pinterest in social media campaigns http://www.scoop.it/t/pinterest-watch

Stories and Games Part 2: The Emotions of Play

Stories and Games Part 2: The Emotions of Play | Just Story It | Scoop.it
From blog.ihobo.com - January 9, 2012 9:00 AM

Nonetheless, there is a powerful sense that the fun of a game and the fun of a story are different in some way. What is that distinction?


I love this post because it goes into depth about the nature of play, gaming and story sharing. It's a great romp through the imagination and another facet about why storytelling is so powerful -- whether you are sharing a business story or just sharing a story with friends.


I've long said that storytelling is deep play.  This article explains the how and why of that. The author talks here about the emotions of play he has identified and how that connects to our imagination -- and the imagination of our listeners when we tell a story.


This post is Part 2. Part 1 is about Stories and Games: Art. Can't wait to read that one next!
