The document summarizes key points about using social media for reform Jewish congregations. It discusses how social media has changed communication by becoming more participatory, open, conversational and communal. It emphasizes adding value through newsworthy, useful content and developing networks. It also notes how social media has shifted power dynamics by allowing unofficial groups to form and how organizations must be nimble to keep pace with constant technological changes. The focus is on understanding audiences and developing strategies to meet objectives rather than just using technologies for their own sake.
