Amazee – The social collaborating stuff sounds good to me. I always believe in promoting an idea or an cause in a platform where the business people and individuals are indulged. This way, we can get some reach and meaning to our thoughts.

In reply to @WorldNomads. That's a good point, and a great example of thinking outside the box. Nothing like a captive audience to raise awareness of important projects. - jd

Great list of tools and many thanks. I particularly like the look of the Kodak Zi8 which is going to be added to my ever growing list of objects of desire. All excellent tools though for people who want to make a positive difference with social media and communities.

One thing to consider that if you are producing distributable content, in particular video, don't just look at Youtube / Vimeo or traditional tv outlets as the primary channel for distribution.

We wanted to find a way to spread the word about our charity program, FootprintsNetwork.org, so what better way than to film the projects we've raised funds for and look to distribute the documentaries online, well, if they were only good enough to go online. If we felt they were better quality than that, then we could look to offer them up as 'license-free' content to airlines.

Airlines are desperate for quality content, new AVOD (audio video on demand) systems are being placed into airlines these days, and the demand for content is higher than ever.

Luckily the documentaries (http://journals.worldnomads.com/positive_footprints) were good enough and we now have them on over 26 airlines around the world. We were also lucky that Nat Geo Adventure bought the series and broadcast (putting trumpet away now).

With airline audiences, you have travellers visiting countries where community development projects are being run, so why not raise awareness of these projects before they get there, you have a captive audience, an engaged audience, no better time than to deliver your vision.
