Besides my role with NetSquared globally, I also organize a monthly NetSquared event locally, in Cambridge, UK. The April Net2Camb event was led by David Earl, an early member of the OpenStreetMap team who has helped to record mapping data for much of our region. In his talk, David shared the journey the small OSM team and larger global community have taken to make real humanitarian impact using open source maps.
In the last two months, we've had 5 new NetSquared Local groups join the scene, bringing the new official number to 70 groups worldwide! Below is a list of the new groups that have just gotten started.
There is such a strong nonprofit technology presence in the Boston/Cambridge area, it seems like a no-brainer for there to be a Net Tuesday there.Â
Anybody interested in getting more information about how to organize one? If so, shoot me an email at bbravo@techsoup.org.
