Celebrate, partcipate: It’s OneWebDay!

Nestoreaderos, Celebrate!

Today is OneWebDay:

The idea behind OneWebDay is to focus attention on a key internet value (this year, online participation in democracy…)

We do try our best to involve our users in our development process – providing you with feedback opportunities whenever possible – every piece of which is read by our Democratic Feedback Monitor.

However, OneWebDay this year is about more than that – it’s about widening participation on the internet, reaching out especially to developing countries and those less able to access the internet. It’s also about learning and spreading knowledge – have you ever edited a Wikipedia article? Or submitted some geodata to OpenStreetMap or GeoNames. Or worked on an open source software project? Or supported heros of online democracy mySociety? If not, maybe today’s the day to get started.

To read more, feel free to visit the OneWebDay site, or look for a meetup in your locality. For those of us resident in London, there’s a get together planned for 6:30 this evening at Inn 1188.

As always, please feel free to comment below, or send us some feedback (naughty or nice).
