The first day at the Mozilla Festival has been nothing short of amazing. Great people in an awesome venue making sure the web reaches its full, open potential. If you were around last night for the Science Fair most likely we got a chance to talk because I feel like a hundred people approached to ask about Remix The City.
I don't know if it was the fact that I had lots of animated GIFs to showcase or the amazing stories that the youth has created as part of our workshops, like "travelling to space", but the excitement around teaching important digital literacy skills is palpable and once again we've confirmed that there is very little out there to help the youth build a strong foundation that will guide them on how to become great netizens.
Oh, and our launch of GIFF, the gif international film festival, promises to bring our first phase of the Remix the City project to a grand finale that will allow people everywhere to help us pick the best Mixes.
So, if you are interested in helping us teach these important skills, we want to hear from you. Next in my agenda is the Maker Party, for the young ones at the festival. And tomorrow I devote all my attention to help others remix the web.
