Third Happening Friday we held the third Happening on Emergent Democracy. Like the previous two, we used voice, chat and wiki for a high bandwidth event. This time we split the moderation duties by each mode, which worked well but as the moderator of the voice channel I found myself participating in the other modes just as well. The use of chat for signalling and voting was really effective this time.
What emerged was an effort for a more concise definition of emergent democracy, further development of a Journal of Emergent Democracy and standards support. Previous Happenings served as a loci for energy generated in blogspace, whereas this one generated new energy to carry us forth. See the Socialtext workspace for further details.
