Discussions around the fireplace

This month's open day started quite slow and cold - we started the day with making the fire which helped a bit with warming up.

We spent the day with gathering info, photos and text for the Ngoma Vuma Afrika website, (hopefully we can upload it within the next few days ) watching a few episodes of Go_open, and spent time discussing whatever came to mind while sitting and warming up by the fireplace.

NetSquared: "I want change"


NetSquared has a Flickr slideshow called "I want change". Click here to have a look and add your own slide.

"NetSquared, (a project of Tech Soup) is working to bring the social web to nonprofits and NGOs by sharing stories and building tools.

Imagine a world where the 10 million nonprofits and NGOs across the globe are using tools like blogging, podcasting, tagging, social bookmarking, RSS feeds and wikis to grow their membership, fund raise, recruit volunteers, do low-cost publicity, raise awareness about issues and collaborate.

We've created the NetSquared "I Want Change" group because we believe in the power of tools like these to change the world.

We're hoping that you'll add a photo of yourself with a sign (6 words or less) that describes what you believe is the most important change that needs to happen to make the world a better place and tell your friends to do the same.

Together, we can use the social web for social change."
