Occupy Salt Lake City goes to court
I am one of 19 people arrested November 19 when the police raided our camp at Pioneer Park. We have all plead not guilty and have refused the plea bargains offered. We are charged with curfew violation and disturbing the peace. I go to court tomorrow for a plea trial conference where they will try again to get me to take a plea. No deals. We all have attorneys who are sympathetic to our cause and are taking our cases pro-bono. We will go to trial and fight for our 1st amendment rights.…See More

My name is Christian Fuchs, I am professor at Uppsala University and chair of the European Sociological Association's Research Network for Communications and Media Research.
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 at Uppsala University in Sweden that is headed by me and that is keen to find out answers to these questions. Therefore we conduct the OccupyMedia! Survey. 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:
https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/WG7JRG2
If you have any more questions about the survey, please contact us. If you do not find time to participate or simply find such surveys not interesting or annoying, then please simply ignore our request and excuse any inconvenience. Thanks a lot!
Further information about social media research and the background of this survey can be found in this article:
http://occupynewsnetwork.co.uk/why-social-media-research-matters-for-occupy/
If you find this survey a good idea, then we are happy if you can also tell others about it.
Best, Christian Fuchs

The Importance Of Reverse Phone Lookup.
Posted by Valentin Stokes on May 3, 2013 at 13:27 0 Comments 0 Likes
The first three digits of the phone number would also help them locate the owner of the phone number. The thing is that if they had just run a phone number lookup, they could have found each other! Before you get any ideas, let me tell you that these sites are perfectly legal and also offer their services free of cost. This happens to many different people all over the world and many of them don't know how they can identify these pranksters. It's extremely… Continue
We are supposed to be in this together!

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…
