New Features on gorillacd.org for Facebook Integration and Protect the Park
April 17th, 2009 by Alberto
We have just released several new features on gorilla.cd. This has been the most significant effort since site launch last October, so we look forward to hearing your comments and feedback.
Multiple tools to help Virunga Friends spread the word in the Facebook community are now online. These include:
1) “Donate your status” – this feature allows you to link gorilla.cd from your Facebook status, hence giving the chance to all your friends to click the link and visit the site;
2) “Publish our campaign on your Facebook profile” – this allows you to publish the donation barometer and link to a campaign on your Facebook profile;
3) “Invite you friends to the gorilla.cd community” – allowing you to send a gorilla.cd invitation to some or all of your Facebook friends.
Also, the Facebook cause - which now has more than 70,000 members and has raised more than $9.000 - can now be joined directly from the website.
Furthermore, we have added a map of Virunga (specifically the Gorilla Sector) and will be enriching it with pictures and videos from the forest. We will place these photos and videos exactly in the plot where they were taken. Click on the picture link below to see more!
Change on gorillacd.org - what do you think?

We have released some new website features that will hopefully improve website usability and friendliness.
A store section, where gorilla.cd merchandise can be purchased, is now online. Our external partner, a web company named Zazzle, will produce and ship merchandise for us. All proceeds from sales, net of Zazzle’s costs, will go towards the protection of Virunga National Park. Using gorilla.cd shirts, cups, key rings and magnets will help you spread the word and have a larger impact.
Click on the link above and it will take you to the gorilla.cd store. What else would you like to see here? Check out all the products on Zazzle and let me know by leaving a comment here what else you would like to see on offer. Read the full story »
