| = Key Message<br> =
| |
|
| |
| == What ''is'' Drumbeat?<br> ==
| |
|
| |
| *An invitation to everyday internet users to help keep the web open
| |
| *An inclusive network that facilitates and aides open web innovations
| |
| *A worldwide community of smart, creative, everyday people who actually /make and do/ things that attack problems, power big ideas, and build the open web.<br>
| |
| *[we need more in this section, or really to segregate these into a few key bullets, but this is the basic idea]
| |
|
| |
| == How does it work? ==
| |
|
| |
| *You connect with people and projects that are intersting to you--the goal is for you to connect with others and *build* stuff
| |
| *We help you find each other to make projects and build traction and change the world
| |
| *If you start to be successful your project can be funded<br>
| |
| *[this section is waaaay choppy, but basically, 'meet people, make open web-y stuff, maybe get funded']
| |
|
| |
| == Who's behind it?<br> ==
| |
|
| |
| *The Mozilla Foundation and every web user on the planet
| |
| *Mozilla has huge audience--great way to affect change towards the open web is to mobilize this demographic firefox was one way to facilitate the open web [but was not enough]
| |
| *We are using the audience and brand behind Mozilla to leverage Drumbeat and the open web
| |
| *Drumbeat is a way for a more demographics of people to participate in the open web than developers and beta testers of Firefox
| |
| *We are doing these things in the same way we make Firefox -- using an open, participatory and global approach to build things that simultaneously make the web stronger and delight the people who use them.<br>
| |
| * [these, like the other sections, need to become more bullet-y but this is the content...]
| |
|
| |
| == What are you trying to accomplish?<br> ==
| |
|
| |
| *Big fucking change on the internet. Openness everywhere, not for nerds only–we’re taking what we started with Firefox and amplifying it through Drumbeat.
| |
|
| |
| **Short-term goals:
| |
| ***a strong, safe open internet
| |
| ***to back social entrepreneurs who are making things
| |
| ***Find and nurture thousands of local community leaders who will invite people in their cities to participate in practical, hands-on open web projects and events.
| |
| ***Create a compelling and diverse narrative about the open web that motivates millions of people around the world
| |
| **Long-term goals
| |
| ***an internet where everyone should all be able to freely create, innovate and express ideas
| |
| ***a huge, lasting movement of people who feel they own, shape and should protect the web
| |
|
| |
| *[this section needs shorter bullets, but these are the key ideas--also we need a non-cursing version of 'big fucking change on the internet' for the next iteration :) ]<br>
| |
|
| |
| == Why does that matter?<br> ==
| |
|
| |
| *The Internet is increasingly becoming our global commons: a critical public resource over a billion people use every day to learn, innovate, trade, befriend and play.
| |
| *It creates more wealth, supports more friendships and fosters more innovation than anything ever before. <br>
| |
| *The open web needs to be grown, improved, and protected, Protected from confusion. Monopoly. Exploitation. Centralization. Control.
| |
| *It is in the hands of internet *users* to shape the future of the open web. At the end of the day it's up to *us.*
| |
|
| |
| The open Web, in short, is evolving, decentralized, transparent and participatory. It is:
| |
|
| |
| *'''Evolving''' and improving as we each can re-shape existing parts of the Internet into something that is our own.
| |
| *'''Decentralized''' in both architecture and control, ensuring continued choice and diversity.
| |
| *Built on '''transparent''' technologies that anyone can study, use or improve.
| |
| *Fueled by '''participation''', in ideas, energy or media from more than a billion Internet users.
