New Matrix category for Social Networking services for nonprofits

Social networking has been a buzzword across the internet for the past couple of years, and over the past 12 months in particular, it has moved into the mainstream, including into the nonprofit sector. Many of the largest nonprofit organizations are now investing resources into the development of their social networking strategies and tools, and the medium and smaller organizations are starting to follow suit as well.

At the same time, online and web service providers have begun offering social networking services and tools that range in scope (and investment) from providing handy widgets and plug-ins to help nonprofits gain access to social networks, to hosting complete private social networking communities dedicated to single causes, organizations or campaigns.

The new Social Networking category on the Matrix allows service providers to promote their own social networking tools and services to the nonprofit sector.

Existing profile holders can update their existing profile to include the Social Networking tag, and new profiles will be able to include this tag when they submit a new profile.
