Hi all!

I'm sure you're all aware of the ECF Oxford digital shindig for 
ecampaigners (if not, see here and book your spot! 
http://fairsay.com/events/ecampaigning-forum/).

I met Tim from Oxford Friends of the Earth at a conference the other day 
(CC'd), and he suggested we could put on a digital training event for 
activists. I just wanted to test the waters to see if anyone would be up 
for helping out, either running sessions / workshops, or simply with 
logistical stuff.

It could be a couple of hours one afternoon, or a whole day depending on 
capacity, and levels of interest from the group.

What do you think? Would you be up for helping out? What should the 
event consist of?

Some initial ideas:

    * Writing compelling web campaigns copy
    * Social media for activism (or could be split Facebook / Twitter?)
    * Security for activists - such as TOR network, etc?
    * General session on useful tools for effective ecampaigning (maybe
      PingFM stuff?)

With P&P, New Internationalist, Oxfam, Earthwatch, etc, all local I'm 
hoping there would be some interested punters and possible speakers?

This could also be a way to take our small charity site-building 
extravaganzas to the next level? Over the course of the day we could 
entirely rework a small organisation's site as part of training sessions?

Cheers!
Tom
