HI, DDN folks, I would love to be able to check out the www.ourmedia.org site, but it seems to be closed--I can't even get to the front page--I get a password prompt--anyone else having this problem?
Chris Warner-Carey Grace Lutheran Church Ukiah, CA -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Phil Shapiro Sent: Tuesday, March 22, 2005 9:55 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [DDN] Ourmedia.org web site appears to be working well Hi DDN community - Last night I uploaded a 70 megabyte QuickTime file to Ourmedia.org, and today the file is available for the public to view. See http://ourmedia.org/node/887 On your Ourmedia.org account, you might choose to list your DDN proflie as your web site address -- even if you have another web site. Do you see how that brings greater visibility to DDN? Journalists looking to cover Ourmedia.org will be keeping an eye out for interesting files uploaded in the first month or two. If you have existing files to upload -- or are finishing work on a video or multimedia project, this is a good time to be uploading it. In describing the file with the accompanying text, describe it in a way that's a little off-beat or unusual. Ourmedia.org is such an exciting commons, it's best not to describe your uploads in a humdrum way. If you need some help in describing a file you want to upload, there are folks here on the DDN site (me included) who are happy to offer assistance in the best way to describe your file. If you'd like some ideas on how to describe your file on Ourmedia.org, feel free to send me your file using http://yousendit.com (a free service for sending large files.) Please do not send me your file as a file attachment. Together, we have the ability to create an impression such that someone will conclude, "You know, some of the most interesting files uploaded to Ourmedia.org come from those folks on the Digital Divide Network. There must be something very interesting going on in that community." - Phil -- Phil Shapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.his.com/pshapiro/ (personal) http://teachme.blogspot.com (weblog) http://www.digitaldivide.net/profile/pshapiro (technology access work) http://mytvstation.blogspot.com/ (video and rich media) "There's just so much more creativity and genius out there than our media currently reflect."
