 thought these might be some resources and tools of interest to cyberquilting.  not sure if you have seen them before. 

global voices advocacy 2.0 guide

The Advocacy 2.0 Guide (Tools for Digital Advocacy) describes some of the best techniques and tools that digital activists - and others who wish to learn from this subject - can use as part of their online advocacy campaigns. While our previous guide (Blog for a Cause!) focused on the effective use of blogs as an advocacy tool, this guide will explore creative uses of other web 2.0 applications.

Our goal is to:

• Aggregate web 2.0 tools for advocacy
• Provide detailed instructions on how to use them
• Highlight successful experiences of web 2.0 activism by local digital activists around the world.
• Inspire other activists to adopt these strategies in ways that serve their specific goals and needs.

From “Geo-bombing” to “multi-blogging” and Twitter to “mash-ups”, we explore the field of digital advocacy, helping activists reach out to audiences they may never have reached before.

Tactical Tech's toolkits are designed to meet the needs of not-for-profit groups such as NGOs, human rights advocates, independent journalists and community associations.

Each toolkit is complied by a team of international experts and is then rigorously peer-reviewed by an editorial team – with the needs of not-for-profit organisations and human rights advocates prioritised at all times.
