PlaNetwork
A friend, Paul King, recommended a very interesting conference which started this morning organized by Jim Fournier: PlaNetwork: Networking a Sustainable Future.
The Internet has enabled citizens around the world to mobilize with unprecedented speed and precision. We have seen what the Internet can do in this regard: On February 15th, millions of people worldwide spoke out for peace. For the first time we could see and hear our vast numbers from around the world.
...Planetwork will focus on the ways in which information technologies and the Internet can continue to play a key role in accelerating progressive change and establishing how we can harness the tools we have for creating a healthier, more just and civil society.
