Hey ya Occupyers of the world!
My name is Lars, and Im part of the facilitation group in Occupy Copenhagen (Denmark, Europe, Planet Earth).
First day we were 2.000 peeps protesting, now we are around 30 active and maby 50 more inactive Occupyers. The low numbers is due to the fact our camp got demolished by the police and the cold is a tough one.
We like to get in contact with other occupyers, and myself would like to discuss facilitation, strategy and ideas for direct action.

What is the role of social media like Occupii, Facebook and Twitter in occupations and protests? Was the Arab spring a "Twitter and Facebook" revolution? How does the Occupy movement use social media? Is it a social media movement or something different?
We are a group of researchers in Sweden who is keen to find out and therefore conduct a survey among activists. We invite some users of Occupii to participate in it, and were therefore happy if you could take 15 minutes time in order to help us find out what role social media play in contemporary protests:

If you have any more questions about the survey, please contact us. If you do not find time to participate, do not have anything to do with activism or simply find such surveys not interesting or annoying, then please simply ignore our request and excuse any inconvenience. Thanks a lot!

There’s a small retaining pond behind the college apartments. I go back there several times a day; it’s a good area that forces me to have a bit of a walk. …

I was just endiing a campaign in Michigan against our Governor, and wondered what more was out there, what more can I do to help make my country the place I used to love, when I stumbled across a thing called Livestream, where people with the same purpose (supposedly) or like mindness could come together, chat, discuss, plan, and act and I was to say the least, excited. I started chatting and made so many friends and it was then I realized, that I had been wrapped up in my own small…
