Great ideas, and central to developing a ‘culture of gratitude’ that nonprofits need as they build relationships with all who make their work possible, not the least of whom are those we serve…whom we often forget to thank. I just want to add that you are particularly adept at expressing gratitude online!

Debra,

Personally I enjoyed lots about blog commenting and tweeting/stumble upon wonderful posts I came across. It’s great to let the author know about the good work he/she poured in, how we are appreciating their works and let others know about it. ^^

How blessed to have met you on social media and learned so much from your fabulous posts. To me, you’ve always been giving in either social media informations and spreading the thoughtful acts. Thanks to you, I get to meet some nice people along with a thanksgiving post idea!

Kelli-Another GREAT addition to this post. Introductions are powerful, and supportive ways to tell people you are thinking about them and their interests. I love your comment about the good feeling you get when you connect two networks to one another because that is so true. It reminds me that I’ve also introduced folks to each other on Twitter with a simple tweet telling them they should meet – not quite as strong as an introduction – but hard to do better in 140 characters!

Another excellent post that sums up the numerous ways to give thanks to folks who provide us with a wealth of valuable information on a regular basis – no mean feat.
Another way to give thanks online (albeit a bit obvious) is simply to introduce relevant contacts in your networks to one another. It takes time, but you can’t help but get a good feeling when you help connect two people. In doing so, I think you also give each a vote of confidence that they’re someone you respect and recommend.
And on that note – off to do just that.

I am still learning twitter and how to use other forms of social media. Thank you for these ideas. I think saying thank you is very important and not done often enough, including myself. It is a good reminder to us all.
