How to Easily Enrich Your Tweet with a Voice Message Using  Chirps

Reaching your online volunteers via Twitter's 140 character limit may be inadequate. However, adding a voice message to a Tweet allows one to move beyond the 140 character limit while adding rich emotions to your Twitter message. This audio recording provides a brief overview as to how you can use Chirps free service (www.chir.ps) to easily add a voice message to your tweet.

MYS announces the release of an iTunes instructional video entitled "How to Subscribe to and Play Podcasts Using Apple's iTunes". Podcasts, which are downloadable audio or video files, are a productive way to learn about trends and issues that impact online volunteering within non-profit organizations.  iTunes, the dominant free podcatcher available for both Windows or Macs, allows the non-profit user to easily subscribe to a podcast publisher's feed and then have the episodes delivered automatically to their desktop-based podcatcher (iTunes) where they can be played when released. Whether the consideration or concern is, for example, Internet security or the use of an application, free podcasts are available to assist a non-profit organization develop their online volunteer program.

MYS extends their thanks to Ireland-based Online Volunteer Becky Heaman for  producing the video and to Alberta-based online volunteer Gail Drinnan for video distribution.
