Tuesday, July 6, 2010: 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM
Featuring: 
Steven Lubetkin
Wendy Univer

Podcasting. Videocasting. Streaming. Multimedia resources can be powerful tools for advancing your nonprofit or social change cause. On July 6, Philly Net Tuesday will have an interactive session focused on the technologies and opportunities for creating, editing and distributing audio and video content via the web.

Our presenters will be Steve Lubetkin (Podcast Steve) of Lubetkin Communications, and film maker and nonprofit communications strategist Wendy Univer. This interactive evening will cover tools and technologies for getting started, tips for effectively creating and editing video and audio content, and alternatives for distribution (e.g., when is Vimeo better than YouTube?). In addition to loads of useful, up-to-date information, we’ll have the opportunity to demonstrate these tools and skills, and compare and contrast different options. (You’re encouraged to bring your own audio or video recording equipment to try some new things yourself.)

Videostream of Web2.0 Activist Model Case Studies event in NYC 12/17 @ 7:30 PM EST

Submitted by Seth Horwitz on December 16, 2008

Ivan Boothe identified the following event in New York tomorrow (Wednesday, December 17, 2008) night at 7:30 EST. They are going to attempt to live stream it at http://mogulus.com/notanalternative, and will post the video in any event at http://www.notanalternative.net.

Web 2.0 Activist Model Case Studies

Over the past two years, Web 2.0 technologies have matured and so have the methods activists use to employ them. In 2008, activists from around the world used Web 2.0 to take command of the digital airwaves pioneering new forms of political mobilization. From Student’s for a Free Tibet’s live streamed protests in Beijing, to RNC protesters coordinating actions and monitoring police movements on Twitter to mass digital mobilizations for humanitarian relief and election protection, Web 2.0 is no longer just for social networking and fundraising.

This Wednesday, practitioners involved in the above campaigns will present case studies and highlight how they leveraged these tools to have broader reach and greater effectiveness. We’ll also delve into issues governing internal organization and communication among political actors, including: transparency vs. security; command and control vs. autonomous affinity groups, and the power of organizing without organizations vs. the tyranny of structurelessness.

Plans for the Net Tuesday Social Web Carnival are coming along nicely. Here’s how it will work…

People will visit each of 5 stations throughout the room. At each station, we will brainstorm ways in which that station’s tools have been or can be used for social change causes, as well as ideas for future Net Tuesday programs and other ways we can support, learn from and inspire one another in the Philly area. Then, we’ll come back together to share some of the insights and ideas that were generated.

Join the Social Web Carnival at the December Net Tuesday!
