<nettime> Shell HQ occupation live on Internet |
Occupation of Shell HQ live on the Internet from palmtop-computer I don't know if you heard about the Shell action in London on Monday - activists occupied the Shell HQ (both the outgoing and incoming directors offices) and uploaded a site to the web from inside (http://www.kemptown.org/shell). There seems to be quite a bit of interest in this - from the shell angle (supporting the demands of the Ijaw people), the internet/technology angle (1st time a site has been updated from inside an action using just a palm-top computer and mobile phone, both running on batteries), and the censorship angle (shell want to serve an injunction on the site). --- # distributed via nettime-l : no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a closed moderated mailinglist for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: majordomo@desk.nl and "info nettime-l" in the msg body # URL: http://www.desk.nl/~nettime/ contact: nettime-owner@desk.nl
