[DisasterRadio] Old (2013) reflections on user/ethnographic research re: mesh

Hey all, Was going through archives of research tonight for the Mozilla app for People's Open and came across some old blog posts from early 2013. I posted them (retroactively dated) on the People's Open blog, hope that's all right! Some bits may be useful for putting together the users / communities / social impact segments of the grant apps: - Occupy Sandy: A Model for Grassroots Community Disaster Relief <https://peoplesopen.net/blog/188-2/> - How to Make a Mesh: Coalition-Building in Oakland <https://peoplesopen.net/blog/how-to-make-a-mesh-coalition-building-in-oakland/> - Slow Dev: What the Open Source Software Community Can Learn from Anthropologists <https://peoplesopen.net/blog/slow-dev-what-the-open-source-software-community-can-learn-from-anthropologists/> - Bridging the Physical/Digital Divide: Hyperlocal Networks and Community-Based Asset Mapping <https://peoplesopen.net/blog/bridging-the-physicaldigital-divide-hyperlocal-networks-and-community-based-asset-mapping/> Cheers, Jenny Help open a people-powered common space in Oakland, California! https://omnicommons.org/donate `~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~` "Technology is the campfire around which we tell our stories." -Laurie Anderson "Storytelling reveals meaning without committing the error of defining it." -Hannah Arendt "To define is to kill.
