Hi everyone…. As an inaugural experiment in mobcasting, I've created a mobcasting tool for presidential inauguration protestors. I posted a note to a couple of protest group sites, and have set up the blog so that the instructions for participating are right on the homepage. At this point I just plan to sit back and see if anything happens. -andy

“We are imperialists and prejudiced, but faced with other nations' prejudice, we forget our own. We turn our backs to Latin America and Africa, despite sharing with them the same history of colonization.” Sakamoto [pt] reflects on the way Brazilians treats its migrant workers and dreams about it as country which would allow the free movement of workers.

LimbicNutrition Weblog writes about the case of Miladin Kovacevic: “‘Who the hell is Miladin Kovacevic,' you might ask, ‘A war criminal?' Not quite, he is a Serb college basketball player involved in the horrific beating of a fellow student in a New York State town who was then helped to escape the USA and return to Serbia by a Serbian diplomat.”

NO to Mobcasting !
I say no to mobcasting as contraction of the terms mobile and PODcasting.
Actually, it’s not a contraction between mobile and podcasting. You’re missing the most important element - Smart Mobs. Mobcasting isn’t simply about anyone with a mobile phone that’s podcasting. Mobcasting is about empowering groups of people - ie Smart Mobs - to be able to share experiences from an event as a podcast. So feel free to call mobile phone podcasting whatever you want.
