Since then I have thought of  how achieving it. Today, Howard Rheingold published a Videocast  on Ushahidi project which is an excellent example how to do this. Ushahidi uses Google Maps to map violations of human rights through the collaboration of  citizens reporters.

“Ushahidi, which means ”testimony” in Swahili, is a website that was developed to map reports of violence in Kenya after the post-election fallout at the beginning of 2008. Ushahidi’s roots are in the collaboration of Kenyan citizen journalists during a time of crisis.”

“This lecture presents the major thesis of Professor Manuel Castells’ most recent work to be published in the book ‘Communication Power’. The book argues that power is ‘based on the control of communication and information’ and develops the theoretical and empirical foundations of the many aspects of this argument.”
