Momentum: Igniting Social Change in the Connected Age
A new and empowering way of looking at and organizing social change! How can we move from serving soup until our elbows ache to solving chronic social ills like hunger or homelessness? How can we break the disastrous cycle of low expectations that leads to chronic social failures?
The answers to these questions lie within "Momentum," a fresh, zestful way of thinking about and organizing social change work. Today's digital tools— including but not limited to e-mail, the Web, cell phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), even iPods— promote interactivity and connectedness. But as "Momentum" shows, these new social media tools are important not for their wizardry but because they connect us to one another in "inexpensive," "accessible," and "massively scalable" ways.

Locked Inside by Nancy Werlin, ISBN 0440228298
Marnie is tremendously wealthy and tremendously alone. The 16-year-old daughter of a superstar who was killed years ago in a plane crash, Marnie refuses to take part in her oppressive boarding-school community. And she has no interest in living with her guardian, a well-meaning but stiff man named Max. She would rather burrow away in the dark, comforting world of her favorite Internet adventure game. Especially now that she has started chatting online with one of the other players, an intriguing rogue who calls himself the Elf.
But closing herself off from the people around her doesn't mean she's safe, as Marnie soon discovers. Kidnapped and locked inside an empty basement cell, Marnie is forced to confront painful truths about herself and her famous mother as she desperately tries to escape her jailer.
