Pangea Day

TED Blog Link

Today, while reading TED Blog, I came across this even called Pangea Day. On May 10th 2008 "sites in Cairo, Dharamsala, Kigali, London, New York City, Ramallah, Rio de Janeiro, and Tel Aviv will be videoconferenced live to produce a program of powerful films, visionary speakers, and uplifting music."

The idea is to use the power of moving image to unite. To allow people to see the world from someone else's eyes. Here is a promotional trailer that was released just yesterday:



I truly believe that an effort of this magnitude will leave a positive mark on the world. It great to see the power of technology being used for this kind of effort. A globally organized event like this could have never happened before todays huge bandwidth and super computers.

Please join the effort and participate by going to pangeaday.org to sign up for the news letter, see the list of events in your area and learn more about it.
