>Protect the Human Shortlisted for award
>The site I produced for the fine folks at Made by Many and Amnesty International UK has been shortlisted for a New Media Age Effectiveness Award which is rather exciting. It would be amazing if it did well, we did work bloody hard on it!
It’s top of the list as well, I’m sure that’s a good omen and nothing to do with Amnesty and the letter A.
See the quite long short list here: http://www.nmaawards.co.uk/Shortlist.aspx

>BoingBoing has picked up a cause being pushed now by Amnesty through the Protect The Human site which was launched last month. Troy Davis is scheduled to be executed in Georgia at 7pm local time on 23 September. He has been on death row for 17 years for a murder he maintains he did not commit.
One of the aims of Protect the Human was to give Amnesty UK a platform which allowed them to pick up on critical events and to react quickly, drawing attention to these types of causes.
From the number of comments about the issue on BoingBoing it’s really amazing to see the site in action and working as intended. There is still a lot of honing and refining to do on Protect the Human, but it’s all heading in the right direction.
Follow the conversation on Protect The Human, BoingBoing and join the other people helping to save a man’s life.
Keep up to date on Protect the Human and many other innovative projects (some of which are launching very soon)at Made by Many.
