IVAW VooT (Volunteer Online Organizing Team) is forming up

published by aaron hinde on 03/06/13 5:11pm

Register for the Voot Here!

A VooT is forming and we want buy in!. That's right a couple of IVAW members in the bay are starting an online organizing team called the VooT (volunteer online organizing Team) to handle all of IVAW web development, technology and possibly communications and other aspects of online organizing which is sorely needed as these are all invaluable tools but without people putting in their time and effort or a paid developer these things will never be developed or utilized. This VooT group will be working in conjunction with the IVAW strategy team to have oversite over our efforts and so we can develop tools and resources in conjunction with IVAW's strategy and membership building efforts. 

Register with the VooT here.  We are also going to be holding discussions and setting up the VooT's procedures and brainstorming on how to move forward at the upcoming VoT's at future farms and in SF CA which you can register at here.  If you have any tech skills please register, if you want to learn how to help and develop new skills please register.

Fear, Guilt and Love: Reflections on the World Social Forum from a US Veteran

I’ve tried, pretty successfully, to live a life without too much fear. Growing up I didn’t follow the rules of stranger danger. I talked to everyone I met, picked up hitchhikers, went out to unfamiliar places alone, and I’...
