I just fired this note off to Dan Gillmor (with copy to Lisa Williams), sharing my enthusiasm:
Hi Dan,
You truly inspired me at the Berkman-hosted Wikimania 2006 conference recently.
Lisa Williams and I have been talking excitedly about citizen
journalism initiatives lately, and I want to share this simple mashup
of free hosted OPML and free hosted video.
The revolutionary think is how quickly these sites can be created, that they are hosted for free, and that they can be continually updated and modified, and that the editing can be done by an individual or a group or the public. Here is a simple demo, not much except an introduction to the concept, and a basic how-to. But I think you will immediately see the potential.
I may post a version of this note itself next, because in writing it I’ve had a few more ideas. Be well, peace, Jim
