The Golden Age of Wireless

The cry for a free Tibet has definitely been a persistent underscore to the Air Jaldi proceedings, as evidenced by this poster from nearby McLeod Ganj and the art work made by students at the Tibetan Children's Village Schools we visited (they're eight schools in all). I got to speak to a number of students and asked them what they liked most about their access to the Internet. Taped an interview with one student who explained his use of Google in creating a fairly complex MS Word doc. about icons of political liberation. Students were most enthusiastic about using chat to stay in touch with friends at other TCV campuses and back home, using the social site Hi5.com.

This video has been mentioned several times during the Summit, so I thought I'd put a link to it here (thanks to Michael Lenczner for including it on his blog): video of Chinese soldiers shooting at Tibetans
