Amplify your nonprofit event with Facebook’s new Live Stream plugin

On Wednesday we talked about eight Facebook Social Graph plugins your nonprofit can use to make your site more social.

The Live Stream plugin is one that will be an essential tool for nonprofit events.

Live Stream allows visitors to chat about your event – real-time – and share their chat on their Facebook Wall and News Feed. What makes this powerful is that it draws your supporters friends into the event in a way that feels natural.

As an FYI, there is a free webinar I’ll be conducting on May 11th called “What The New Facebook Changes Mean For Your Nonprofit”. Feel free to attend. Or not.

Twitter has a search widget that nonprofits can use pretty easily for chat
during events: http://twitter.com/goodies/widget_search The key difference
is the lack of social context with Twitter. Everyone tweets in the stream,
regardless of your connection to them.
