We’ve had a speaking slot open up for our ChangeMedium event “Open Technology and the Medium of Change” in San Francisco next week…
If you’ve got something interesting to share about how the social web has been, could be, or is being used for positive social change then drop us a line.
We’ve got a 30-minute slot to fill and would love to include your content if it’s jives with the rest of the evening. Ping Ryan if you’re interested.
Event is on April 13 at Citizen Space in downtown San Francisco at 6:30pm. It’s free and everyone is welcome. RSVP here.

Quick reminder, it’s less than two weeks until ChangeMedium’s first event out in San Francisco. Entitled “Open Technology and the Medium of Change” we’ll have a slate of speakers taking on the topic of how open technologies, protocols and systems are shaping the medium of change and well as looking forward to where they could take us.
Timed to coincide with Twitter’s inaugural developer conference “Chirp” we’re hoping that we’ll be able to assemble a diverse crowd and maybe even provoke change oriented development during their 24 hacklab.
If you’re in San Francisco, or plan on being there for Chirp, please save the date and watch this blog for details as the date approaches and speakers are confirmed.

WHEN: April 13, 2010 @ 6:30pm

COST: FREE

We have a couple of speaker slots available!
Working on a project that’s change oriented and uses open technologies? Developing a protocol or app that could be useful for facilitating change? We’ve still got a couple of slots available for the evening and we’d love to hear what you have to say.
If you would be interested in speaking at this event please get in touch or tweet @changemedium.

…why people tweet? The short answer is new technical term called ambient awareness.
Laura Fitton, the social-media consultant, argues that her constant status updating has made her “a happier person, a calmer person” because the process of, say, describing a horrid morning at work forces her to look at it objectively. “It drags you out of your own head,” she added. In an age of awareness, perhaps the person you see most clearly is yourself.
What follows are ten proclamations for the next generation of movement leaders – it is a summary of our findings and a manifesto for our space. It’s an unfinished guide and an invitation. It’s also a challenge.
