Welcome to OneWebDay!

OneWebDay is now yours. It’s our gift to you. We hope you’ll use it well.

The idea is to use the day, September 22, to reflect on how the Internet has changed the world and how you’d like it to change the world in the future.

It’s a day to do good works (connect more people, teach them how) and consider activism (what government policies would you like to change or initiate?). It’s a day to do these things visibly, in public, so that we get a visual sense that people care about the future of the Internet and are willing to expend some energy to have an effect on it.

The Internet is not unchangeable - we shouldn’t take it for granted - and there are many forces around the world that want to constrain the change and growth that the Internet makes possible. The purpose of OneWebDay is to focus attention and interest on these issues around the globe.

It’s yours. We’re not trying to control it or dictate what you should do on that day. We are, though, hoping that you’ll dream up a project or a plan that is constructive, visual, and engaging for other people around you. Try the wiki for planning, or the social network site above. It’s yours.
