The Social Media Game was played for the first time at the UK National Circuit Rider ConFerence January 2007 following a presentation by Beth Kanter and David Wilcox.
When further developed, we hope that the game will be useful to those with roles (*) such as circuit riders, technology stewards, social reporters, buzz directors in helping individuals, groups, organisations and networks plan how to use social media.
The purpose of this first simple version is to trigger conversations about what social media tools may be appropriate in different situations, and further explore the issues raised in the presentation by... Read more

Aim of the exercises
These three short exercises investigate permitted behaviour in public space as specified in local laws.
Every time we act according to the law, we are contributing to its confirmation, we become 'legal bodies'; trained and instructed by a law we might or might not support.

Who Wants To Be?
Contributors: The People Speak, Saul Albert
Introduction
What follows is an explanation of a particular set of methods developed since 2004 by The People Speak to help large groups of people with highly diverse ideas, opinions and points of view to make important decisions as a group, to come to creative compromises, and to have fun in the process.
This explanation may serve as a guide for others wishing to facilitate decision making in related situations. It is likely that the methods will require adaptation in each instance. If you or your group choose to use these strategies and techniques and have observations or improvements to suggest, please contribute them to the project wiki.
Spontaneity
Who Wants to Be? is a spontaneous, democratic gameshow, where the audience makes up the questions, has all the answers and sets the rules. The basic premise is that every member of the audience has a vote, and that they can propose ideas... Read more

Advertencias
El ejemplo mencionado abajo puede aplicarse a otro grupo minoritario en el uso y la programación de software libre (*).
El uso de software libre es imprescindible.
El siguiente ejemplo está basado en una experiencia llevada a cabo desde noviembre de 2006. La "receta", el "manual" presentado enviado por Constant, es el resultado de una experiencia colectiva y continua de organizaciones y personas, como los talleres-encuentros "Sábados, mujeres y software libre" ("Samedies, Femmes et Logiciels Libres").
Pensados en un principio como auto-formación... Read more
