i was amongst several, if not hundreds, who helped establish the
independent media center in seattle.  the independent media center is
becoming a worldwide virtual network, and hopes to function as a
multimedia news service, focusing on resistance to imperialist
globalization, but also covering various other issues, using open
publishing (see active.org.au).

the website had ~1.5 million *hits*, and roughly 100,000 visitors.  the
five daily documentaries were 30 minutes long.  people in europe who are
interested in screening either the one-hour compilation "showdown in
seattle", or the one recently produced on the "a16" imf/world bank
protests, over the next few weeks, please let me know.
