Wiring a web for global good

Its amazing the opportunities we have right now, we really are in the day and age of true interconnectedness. Where we can instantly inform and amplify, share and respond to digital content.

I think this is something we're going to see more of. In countries where oppression is rife, where media is biased and where access is limited we're going to see more harnessing of social media as a tool to create awareness. Action Aid Australia have made a very forward thinking move with Project TOTO in recruiting a blogger to teach people from developing countries how to use these tools so that people can have insight into the realities they face day to day.

Gorgon Brown talks to this very enthusiastically at his talk at TED last month.
