CrowdVoice: Tracking voices of protest

CrowdVoice.org is a user-powered service that tracks voices of protest from around the world by crowdsourcing information. The platform is open source and can be repurposed for any other cause. Here (and embedded below) is a short video demonstrating its usage and potential.

We would really appreciate it if you can take a few moments and vote for our project at the FACT Social Justice Challenge! http://netsquared.org/projects/crowdvoice

America's Sexuality Day-- an SOS for Sex-- Your Tech Help This Week

America's Sexuality Day www.sexdayusa.com will be announced on March 3, 2010-- only 15 days away. Over the past 2 months four web developers have said they'd volunteer. Unfortunately all four have had delays. We were hoping to have a press conference at The National Press Club in DC on 3/3. Without a web presence to establish our message, I am not sure the date and its symbolism will have a fair launch.

We are in SOS ASAP need for--

  • a Home page
  • an About page
  • a blog format that allows Twitter, FB feeds, and is heavy in growing community integration, and a forum.
  • help with getting our poster viral, would be nifty :)

Honestly, I'd be ecstatic right now just for the home page with an attached easy blog.
