In today’s society, new relationships, interactivity and new social spaces are the founding grounds of the recent explosive development of digital media and of the web 2.0. The aim of this talk is to understand if, and in which way, nonprofit organizations, born to produce wide-spread relational interaction, are able to “profit from” the use of these new tools, specifically those linked to social networks, to which access is, among other things, almost always free. Therefore: which activities and which services are offered by volunteer organizations inhabiting the Web? Does on line interaction translate into concrete opportunities for volunteers and for their communities? This paper will illustrate the initial outcomes of an investigation carried out integrating strategies of quality and quantity on a selected sample of Italian nonprofit social and cultural organizations.

Abstract
In today’s society, new relationships, interactivity and new social spaces are the founding grounds of the recent explosive development of digital media and of the web 2.0. The aim of this talk is to understand if, and in which way, nonprofit organizations, born to produce wide-spread relational interaction, are able to “profit from” the use of these new tools, specifically those linked to social networks, to which access is, among other things, almost always free. Therefore: which activities and which services are offered by volunteer organizations inhabiting the Web? Does on line interaction translate into concrete opportunities for volunteers and for their communities? This paper will illustrate the initial outcomes of an investigation carried out integrating strategies of quality and quantity on a selected sample of Italian nonprofit social and cultural organizations.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
