Joshua Vial replied to Nick Potter's discussion 'Twitter - a powerful tool for social change'June 21

One of the interesting things that twitter is doing is that it is informing the mainstream media http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAWnQp-1IIg&feature=response_watch is an example of a video from tehran which made it to CNN http://open.salon.com/bl...

Cultivating Consciousness

A dialogue that begins with compassion...leading to contentment and ending with responsibility.

Thanks Allan, PM me with your email address and I'll add you to basecamp. If you're keen it might be a good idea to hook up a meeting with Lindsay who is one of our main content producers and will be holding the 350 website. cheers, Joshua

About Me:: Programmer by training, changemaker by vocation - I spend most of my time building websites (ruby on rails), exploring business opportunities and working on not for profit campaigns.

A lot of my energy is currently going into a campaign to say NO to plastic bags in New Zealand. By organising through our campaign centre the idea is to get a large number of people contributing small amounts of time to make some significant change in the world.

Some of the reasoning behind the campaign can be found on my blog. Come and join us - plastic bags are just the first step.

Areas of interest and expertise: Interested in everything, diversity is the greatest wonder of this world.

Expertise in order of enthusiasm and inverse proficiency

I'm co-producing a 24-minute doco at the moment that absorbs a lot of the 350 action that will go down on the 24th October. It's a story that educates our young people and inspires them to get active (building on the ReGen kaupapa). I'll be pouring most of my time into this until it's released on November 22nd.

So, while we'l be instigating & filming a whole lot of 350 actions - I'll be keen to post them up on the uTube space, I'm not sure how much time I can commit to managing the online video presence... ..but keen to help out where possible. Maybe let me know a little more on what you're thinking?

Chur!

I was chatting with Megan a couple of weeks ago about the festival of sustainable living my business partner and I are developing. We are looking at integrating a game element into it and she thought that you would be a great person to have catch up with. Can I buy you a coffee sometime next week?
Cheers,
Georgia
