Celebrate One Web Day
Today, all over the world, people are celebrating One Web Day, best described as an Earth Day for the Internet. The idea behind it 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), and create a global constituency that cares about protecting and defending the Internet. So, think of One Web Day as an environmental movement for the Internet ecosystem. It’s a platform for people to educate and activate others about issues that are important for the Internet’s future.
We decided to join in and mark this important day, and have been posting content over on the Tucows corporate news site:
September 17: All About One Web Day
September 18: Making a Difference in Canada and Beyond
September 19: Video: Elliot Noss on the Power of the Internet
September 22: One Web Day: One Question
You can see what the rest of the world is doing to celebrate the event at the One Web Day site. Are you or your organization participating this year? Post a comment and let us know.
