September 17, 2007 There is an interesting discussion happening between Holly Ross, soon to be ED of NTEN, and Allan Benamer , about web statistics, and whether or not nonprofits should be “transparent&# and publish their web statistics.

Do you want to feed the homeless or cure cancer? We want to figure out how to do a better job letting people know who we are and why we matter in a way they’ll listen. It has always bothered me that nonprofits are measured in dollars and cents, and that we’re all lumped into the same pot. We paint “nonprofits” in broad strokes. Beth Kanter.

Are there actually really any fewer homeless people? But I think the jury is still out, at least from my perspective, on whether or not this sea change in communication has actually resulted in very much on-the-ground social change. Did MoveOn actually manage to help elect someone more progressive? Is the environment any cleaner?
