I've begun using Google Alerts and this morning, Rochelle Robinson's Socialchangewebsites slid into my inbox. According to the site:
Social Change Websites is a directory of the best nonprofit, grassroots, and advocacy campaign websites dedicated to making a difference in the world.
Our goal is to create a central resource for organizations and causes using the best practices of online advocacy to support their mission. We strive to make this directory as thorough and useful as possible for organizations, volunteers, educators, constituents, and donors.
This site is the brainchild of online advocacy specialist Rochelle Robinson. She started this project in an effort to centralize and highlight the numerous web sites working towards positive progressive goals.
I haven't had a chance to browse through yet, as I'm preparing to leave today for a quick training trip and a more thorough review will have to wait for the weekend. At this writing, the site contains 534 sites that have been evaluated for content, design, usabilty and interactivity. Sites are arranged by category, but you can also view by state and conduct searches for sites. There's also a section of resources for nonprofits.
I think this will be a nice resource for our wiki. If you get a chance to take a look and drop me a comment to let me know what you think.

Very Cool!
