On September 22 at 12pm Eastern, as part of “OneWebDay”:1, “NYCwireless”:2 will be hosting a live video conference with community wireless groups around the world. We will be discussing the ways that free, public hotspots have contributed to our own and other local communities. We expect the video conference to last about 30 minutes.
The video conferences will be recorded and contributed to the “OneWebDay”:1 video archives. We will be live at Castle Clinton in Battery Park, New York City, where there will be many other activities going on as part of the event.
Please join us in Bryant Park and participate! Bring your mobile phones, PDAs, laptops and other wireless equipment. Feel free to host your own live video conference with friends around the world to participate in this event as part of “OneWebDay”:1.
*UPDATE: There is a change of location. We will be at Castle Clinton in Battery Park.*

Dear NYCWireless –
Bryant Park wanted to charge us more than 100K for using the space, so we’re lining up another (public) city park. We should have the final word on Tuesday 9/12 of the location for the noon celebration on 9/22. It will be a park with wireless…
We’ll be in touch. Craig Newmark and Scott Heiferman will be speaking, along with a few politicians. There will be great music and pictures/video from around the world. So glad you’re interested!
Susan
