Brings	I'm a media and technology activist who has been deeply involved in indymedia networks around the world. I'm interested in collaborating in developing social software for media making and empowering emergent decentralized and democratic organizing. As a programmer I'm also interested in the technical aspects of software development and not just it's social implications.
Seeks	I'm hoping to meet with people developing new forms of collaborative technologies. Explore what is possible with the actual application of wiki's, blog's, and social networking software. I'm also interested in media making and using free software to create grassroots media centers, particularly in the global south.
