An interesting titbit here about out the SMS messaging centre in Mumbai India was shut down so that demonstrators couldnt use it! So take your carrier pigeons next time you demonstrate or maybe use a 802.11 access point Umm wonder if you can buy a pda/phone with both GSM and 802.11 technology built in.

And this surely must have a huge future – “With Project Hive you can easily publish short articles and pictures of demonstrations or direct actions with your mobile phone or pda. This is useful because you often don’t have a computer around you in some situations”
A mobile blog for demonstrators at the recent G8 meeting with photos from picture phones. Fantastique!!!!
Just getting into this new method of social networking using the internet (digital) to meet like minded people and then meet in more conventional ways (analog).
I recently joined ecademy who send me a monthly newsletter which contained an article on social networking I then went here clicking through Ross Mayfield’s blog ion this took me to this fascinating site and concept called meetup, this allows you to join special interest groups in your city. The fascinating thing about the london blogging group is that the meeting place is decided by the attendees by voting. a very clever use of the technology.
Really think that this is the next big thing, maybe even the next political party!
Interesting article here about installing a new operating system in 8 minutes and yes you are right its NOT aMicrosoft product! Its the new Lindows 4.0 it gets a very favourable review for ease of use etc and for less than $50.
