[HacktionLab] Help with Indymedia talk

[Mike Harris]

Hey all that replied:

I’ve just been through your links, comments and thoughts and really appreciate your input, it will really help my presentation and the discussion that follows.

I will share the slides at some point, and a recording of the event if a recording happens.

And welcome any more of your comments, as all really useful.

Many thanks again,

Mike.

I’ll cover also where it came from, look at it’s heyday (again through personal experience), look at some of the factors behind its demise, and then look at “so what?” Or rather where are we at today? And what’s next?

> - what are we lacking? What have we lost?
> - do you have any ideas for what we could do in the future? How do you see the future?
> 
> Any of your contributions much appreciated, either on, of off list, and also include if you think I’m missing something in general, or ought to consider a different approach, or way of framing things.
> 
> The talk and discussion is going to be no more than about 45 mins.
