Introductions and Ice Breakers

Jackie, IO, Occupy Buffalo; - helped with NatGat2, Occupy Sandy.
Occupy was the clarion call for me to get active; since OB has been in suspension, my participation is mainly as online support.

@sea the "at mention" function also sends you a notification that you are mentioned. use to bring the comment to someone's attention.

I'm justin I occupy wall street, info & comhub, think tank, queering ows, disability caucus, sandy.

i founded a bunch of things- some tool libraries, food pantries & couple co ops around silk screening, design and artsty type occupy things.

oh yeah im a technical writer, editor, event coordinator, ghost social media community manager (the largest has a reach of 8.82 M on Twitter alone) & while not serving on several long term recovery groups in sandy affected areas i write short fiction, poetry & wikipedia articles.

i build networks & get accused of being a troll often by folks who don't know me.

ask jackie. im a bit of an ass if you don't know where im coming from but always put the values of Occupy & it's scrappy rag tag community first.

capt ray loves me. ben AND jerry do too.

u will too when you see what i can do with given a little breathing room.

oh yeah im known in occupy for getting sh*t done with no funding.. like the si tool library

I'm the OTHER Justin. Ask @rustyrockets about my tent. http://www.russellbrand.com/2011/10/occupy/

Thanks for the intell Justin. I always wanted to know that information. I a sure that photo you have there that read "I founded occupy wall street" really made great press.

Come on folks. Introduce yourselves.

Not sure, if I should write here, as I am not in the USA ... I am just looking for informations to forward to my German (and perhaps european) friends in occupy, Blockupy and refugee-Movement ... :)

Ulrike, you are welcome here! Glad to share any information we have.

Julila, I suspect that the photo about founding OWS dates to the time when Justine made that claim in print; there was quite some pushback!

Ulrike's been on many Occupy lists for quite a while now. Glad you are keeping tabs on NatGat for our euro-Kameraden.

right. there was a whole #Ifoundedwallstreet thing for a few weeks. facebook groups, twitter the whole nine.

#IfoundedNatGat. ;)
