It looks like you are on the right track with your website. There are a whole bunch of resources out there that look specifically at technology and social change. I just wrote a piece on Rachel Botsman who coauthored a book called <a href="http://collaborativeconsumption.com/" rel="nofollow">What's Mine is Yours: The Rise of Collaborative Consumption</a>. You might start there. Just doing a search on "technology and social change" will yield tons of results. While I'm no expert in the subject, I fully believe that the potential for technology to form real, lasting social connections is being realized as we speak. It is great to see that organizations such as yours are participating in this movement. Thanks Haven. It looks like you are on the right track with your website.
