Hello, my name is Anna. By day I work for an ISP in London called GreenNet http://www.gn.apc.org - planning and dreaming up new web solutions for UK based small campaigning/activist orgs. By night I work for the Association of Progressive Communications http://www.apc.org, a global organisation which GreenNet helped to found in 1990. With the APC, I work on international projects to support the strategic use of ICTs by civil society orgs. This includes work around the adoption of free software, community wireless networking, ICT policy advocacy and a bunch of other things which are based on making technology more accessible for social change.
Other than that, I like cycling articulated bicycles, sharing bandwidth, and working with Kubuntu. I'll be working as an immoderator on the Human Rights Panel at Net2.

Welcome, Anna! The Human Rights session description raises a lot of interesting questions. As immoderator, what do you hope to see come out of this? I would love to see you post a preview of your perspective in the comments section of that session page.
