In general, I think the open social web could benefit a *lot* from marketing & recruitment.
All successful, sustaining communities depend on efforts to recruit, support, and retain newcomers, yet it often seems like the Wikimedia Foundation is the main/only big open network that has prioritized this. I would gladly donate to support more work recruiting/supporting newcomers if I knew how to give.
