NEW STANDING ITEM: What's the coolest thing you saw on the web this week?
(Rebeccah + Jacob)
- Context and goal:
- We're looking for the best of the web - what was the most creative, poignant, ridiculous, meme-y, technically insane, and simply amusing things you've encountered this week?
- An old etherpad for exactly this: <a href="https://mozlearning.etherpad.mozilla.org/13">https://mozlearning.etherpad.mozilla.org/13</a>
- Why would we like to know? We work for and within the webspace and so we should spend more time enjoying it together, as well as really tune into those things that resound with our peers and audiences.
- Think of it like a Webmaker project presentation meeting where we ask ourselves - what should we aim for when we try to make awesome projects?
