I’m joining a panel to talk about the response for support after the Haiti earthquakes last year. Wikipedia was a popular resource and established as a citizen-driven information source.

Yesterday I had the pleasure of participating in the final #zoogood Twitter chat of 2010. I’m in learning mode, so this post is a quick summary of insights, questions, and resources.
