MIT Center for Civic Media

I have been honored to work with the Center for Civic Media at MIT on the Grassroots Mapping and Public Laboratory projects. I love the work that is being done at the center and hope the GonzoEarth methodologies can make a lasting contribution.
From MIT: The MIT Center for Civic Media creates and deploys technical and social tools that fill the information needs of communities.
We are inventors of new technologies that support and foster civic media and political action; we are a hub for the study of these technologies; and we coordinate community-based test beds both in the United States and internationally.
