Enable Donees to Update Donors

[timothyfcook]

Enable either social network style "newsfeed" or a weekly Updates e-mail to be sent out to update donors on their Donees work and progress.

A weekly update would include any content Donees wanted to share about the work they did this week enabled by their donors.

This will be key to keeping donors invested and keeping donees accountable.

RE: my +1 from twitter, i like the functionality described in the ticket op, but i think the important part missing from the original ticket description is being able to contact individual anonymous people privately, not just being able to broadcast to the collective group of tippers.

As I mentioned to @whit537 on twitter, being able to privately thank and hold conversation with people on an individual level is something that i would really like to do. I very much appreciate anyone willing to spend even a little bit of their hard earned money on me and want to be able to let them know that i appreciate them individually. Conversely, it would be nice if a tipper were able to privately send me a message as well. This may have some overlap with issue #236 as well, as you would need a way to have the conversation participants be revealed if both parties opt-in to being non-anonymous.

Anyway, I just wanted to bring up this specific functionality since it's not described in the main ticket and i'd hate to see it fall through the cracks. I do believe this is the most relevant issue to post it in, at the moment, if not, please point the way and i'll move the post there. :)

On the technical side, I guess this means that the backend would need to know both the tipper and the tipee and be able to associate conversations between the tipper and the tipee with the tippers account without revealing the identity of the tipper to the tipee, but still give the tipee a way to distinguish between anonymous users on the user-facing side and the functionality to make the conversation non-anonymous if #236 is implemented.

Figuring out how to write that last bit properly made my head hurt, I think I need to lie down. :P
