It's November 5th: What Now?

Dear Friends,

It is the day after what has been the most important election of our lifetime.

At Mobilize.org, we are looking forward, creating ways to help YOU harness your energy from this election and make sustainable change in YOUR local communities and nationwide.

We want to give YOU a few ways to help us continue to “upgrade” democracy into 2009, and work to build a Democracy 2.0.

Here is our list of 5 things for getting involved on November 5th:

1. Take the Democracy 2.0 Survey.

Share your views on current events, your generation, and our democracy. Take the Democracy 2.0 Survey, (http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=o_2fBLiJ6QlxCTr9HiIwoheQ_3d_3d). Feel like doing more with the survey? Email Christina Gagnier at christina@mobilize.org to become a survey administrator!

2. Get your friends involved today. Ask your friends to join our social networks.

Mobilize.org is available on all your favorite social networks: Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter. Get your friends engaged!

3. Read the Democracy 2.0 Report.

Released in October 2008, read Mobilize.org’s Democracy 2.0 report, (http://www.mobilize.org/index.php?tray=content&tid=top359&cid=IS6), on its trailblazing project to get Millennials involved in upgrading our democracy.

4. Be a Resident MoBlogger and create a video sharing your election experience.

Got something to say? We want to read it! Join our MoBlog team (http://mobilizedotorg.blogspot.com/) and comment on what you care about most. Mobilize.org wants you to share your election experiences. Get your videophone or a laptop and post video clips of your thoughts on the election.


5. BYOC with Mobilize.

Join us for our first social media meetup! Bring yourself, your computer, and invite five of your Facebook friends to Mobilize.org’s first social media meetup. November 5 from 6-8 p.m. at Mobilize.org. Hear from and engage with your peers in the non-profit, business, and tech communities about a question on all of our minds: What Now?
