Fall 2009 Sabbatical Leave Follow-Up Report

I was awarded sabbatical leave for Fall 2009. My sabbatical proposal was titled “How Web 2.0 Technologies Are Transforming Writing in Nonprofit Organizations.” My plan, as laid out in my sabbatical proposal, involved tracking and analyzing the online presence of 3-5 nonprofit organizations, and reporting on the ways the nature of their organizational writing had changed, directly and indirectly, as a result of the use of web 2.0 technologies, including blogs, wikis, and social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter.
