- User Labor - "With User Labor, we propose an open data structure, User Labor Markup Language (ULML), to outline the metrics of user participation in social web services."
- User-generated censorship - San Francisco Bay Guardian - "There's a new kind of censorship online, and it's coming from the grassroots. Thanks to new, collaborative, social media networks, it's easier than ever for people to get together and destroy freedom of expression."
There's also a couple of useful reports released recently:
- Wireless Technology for Social Change: Trends in NGO Mobile Use by U.N. / Vodaphone. Hat tip: Mobile Active.
- Building National Campaigns - Activists, Alliances, and How Change Happens by Oxfam UK.
- The Oxfam report lead me to the Amnesty International Campaigning Manual.
- Social Networking: A quantitative and qualitative research report into attitudes, behaviours and use - Ofcom (Office of Communications in the UK). Hat tip: Giving in a digital world.
