Using technology for social awareness

HollabackNYC

Here is an example of mobile technology as a weapon against street harassment, started in NYC. Victims of street gender/sexual/racial harassment can take a photo of the harasser, email it to their city's hollaback blog, and thus make a public statement against this problem. There is one for Boston as well.

Open Source

noreply@blogger.com (Ravi) — Mon, 06 Aug 2007 23:23:00 +0000

What is Open Source? Let's look at the wikipedia definition! Is this accurate? Can we trust that it's accurate?

Here are some tools for authoring wikis:
Wikipedia
wetpaint
wikispaces
pbwiki

Some info on mash-up tools in this cnet piece.

And again, Creative Commons.

Convergence Example... I think...

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 06 Aug 2007 02:04:00 +0000

So GMail is doing this video thing... where everyone can make part of a video and "join" in...

Very interesting "participatory" use of technology to, I guess, advertise their service and perhaps grow brand loyalty? Not sure, but either way I thought I'd share...
