Techsoup.org presents a 10-step guide showing how nonprofits can conduct successful “webinars”. A webinar is a seminar conducted fully online, and according to Techsoup, webinars are “a dynamic, engaging way to convey information to a geographically dispersed audience on a budget.”

With the Norwegian election closing in, politicians might consider adding this to their online strategy, as a way of coordinating campaigning efforts? Engaged voters could also be pulled into this process, which would provide the double benefit of more engaged voters as well as better informed politicians (about what the public wants).

Webinars could perhaps also be used as a consulting tool in e-participation, where selected citizens could raise their voice.
