we are what we do


http://www.wearewhatwedo.org/about_us/

“We Are What We Do began life in a corner of East London, as an offshoot of Community Links, an inner-city charity that runs projects in Newham, one of the poorest boroughs in Europe.

Back in 2004, Community Link’s founder, David Robinson, decided to write a paper. It was called Reconnecting and it included his thoughts, based on 25 years as a community worker, on the need for change in society and the power of people coming together to make it happen.”

Essentially, 12Seconds is twitter for video. Anyone can create an account, and they are limited in video length to 12 seconds. It’s an interesting experiment in content creation as video cameras and webcams become more ubiquitous
