What are you going to do for OneWebDay?

OneWebDay

David Weinberger via blog post and twitter reminded me that OneWebDay is coming up on September 22. The first ever OneWebDay was held in 2006.

The idea was created by Susan Crawford, who set up the web site, traveled to different cities to encourage people to celebrate OneWebDay. She is committed to working on OneWebDay through 2016.

The idea behind OneWebDay - a global Earth Day for the internet - is to:

  • focus attention on a key internet value (this year, online participation in democracy)
  • focus attention on local internet concerns (connectivity, censorship, individual skills)
  • create a global constituency that cares about protecting and defending the internet

The members of its board include:

OneWebDay, Inc. is a non-profit organization based in New York.
