Remember to set it for your local time zone. This provides links for the social-media functions, for the support documents, and up-to-date notices—rare, but important.

    > Finally, on Thu, separate from the special WSF events, we have our regular Democracy Movements Weekly International Press Briefing, 3 p.m. EDT (USA & Canada time), 8 p.m. in Madrid, Amsterdam, and Tunis on CET. This requires its own registration an dPIN numbers assigned for this will not work for other WSF special events. The briefing lasts for at least two hours.

Also planning on a presentation about EMF Harm, is Sandy Fields of Occupy EMF Harm teleconferences with a special guest. And, we will have or should have live reports from WSF itself on this press briefing.

We have interviews with Oximity, from The Maldives, from a spokesperson from MQM in Pakistan, and about EMF issues, as well as a special on the convergence of Livestreaming and podcasting with Dee Shanger of Occupy Toronto Live and Dave Jackson of The School of Podcasting.
