Building community in your area? Check out the newly-launched Community Organizers Handbook! Everything you need to start and grow a NetSquared Local group or any other community-powered program.

Last week, I was lucky enough to spend the week organising the Manchester Young Rewired State (YRS) centre. If you haven't heard, YRS is a weeklong "hack event" whereby young coders and developers aged 18 and under gather to build applications from open data. Last year, our Manchester centre was one of four participating YRS teams across the country. This year, we were one of 14!
Over the past 18 months I've been organising the Manchester Net Tuesday group. We've had speakers, discussions and collaborations on a number of issues relevant to the non-profit sector locally, from online fundraising to search engine optimisation to activism & campaigning - a really rewarding experience.
This post outlines how Net2Camb hosted it's first livestreamed event, provides information about how view the slides and listen to the audio, and overviews our future plans for providing more live and recorded Netsquared Local event content in the future.
