Inspired by Sean Stannard-Stockton's "Philanthropy Daily Digest," I'm going to start posting an evening round-up of some of the best social innovation related links. There's so much incredible content out there its worth sharing some of the best of the best.

  • Bill Gates at TED: The authors of Made to Stick share a moment from the TED Talks where Bill Gates released a jar of mosquitos to make a point about malaria. Interesting approach to building empathy..

  • T-Shaped People and Philanthropy: Sean from Tactical Philanthropy blogs about the need for humility and partnerhsip in philanthropy - a lesson that is broadly applicable across the social benefit sector.

  • Invest with Your Heart: Fellow Change.org blogger Zarah picks up on a campaign by eBay-owned betterplace.org that offers free Fair Trade chocolate as an incentive to get you to make a loan to a micro-entrepreneur

  • Our Top 25 Social Entrepreneurship Websites: The good folks at e-180 put together a great list of resources for those interested in social entrepreneurs, that includes blogs, academic programs, fellowships, and more.

Nathaniel Whittemore is the founder of Assetmap. Previously he was the founding director of the Northwestern University Center for Global Engagement.
