  Twitter Hashtag syntax for Haiti crisis. This interesting project by Leysia Palen and colleagues involves constructing (and disseminating) a hashtag syntax “to help direct Twitter communications for more efficient data extraction for those communicating about the Haiti earthquake disaster. Use only requires modifications of Tweet messages to make information pieces that refer to #location, #status, #needs, #damage and several other elements of emergency communications more machine readable. This allows for easier automated collation by any number of groups and good samaritans from any number of sources. HELP US SPREAD THE WORD!!!”.

  A sort of cross between a wiki and a dynamic mind map intended to support collective debate. I think it may fall into the class of ‘failures for interesting reasons.’ http://debategraph.org/
