(Some of the most interesting social entrepreneurs on Twitter are going to be chatting live tomorrow around the question of how social media like Twitter and Facebook are changing how we go about creating change. The post below is reprinted from the SoCap09 blog).

***

Do you think ‘social media is changing change’?

Join Michael Lewkowitz (@igniter), moderator, and other social media greats on Wednesday for the next #SoCap09 twitter chat.  You can also view Igniter’s blog here to see discussion that is already gaining momentum around this topic.

SoCap09 is now one short month away.

Building up to the main event, this next Twitter chat is tackling the topic of how social media is changing change.

We’ll break our hour and a half into 3 segments framed by the following questions:

  1. How is social media changing change?
  2. What does that mean for “the intersection of money and meaning”?
  3. What threads should we take into the conversation SoCap09?

If you can be on twitter Wednesday, August 12th from noon to 1:30PT please join us for this chat by simply following #SoCap09 and tweeting with #SoCap09 in your tweet.

If you can’t make it, or want to contribute in advance, please just add your 140 character contributions in the comments below and we’ll try and work them into the chat with attribution.

I think social media’s changing change in ways we don’t yet understand. What do you think? What should we be talking about?
