15 minutes of fame
I just received a link to this on the daily newsnight email I receive. I couldn't decide whether to go home and watch this or go to the Hog Roast. Luckily I could click on the link and watch it online, therefore I achieved both!
It's a bit long to watch but it's really worth it. It is interesting when you see the Balendjik channel article as I think they are commenting on the role of the internet in the loss of commmunities in the UK. This group specifically are shown producing a short film on how to live better with people of different nationalities. As the channel is viewed by local people only their programme can directly educate and hopefully influence local people, thus restoring a sense of community.
I think it sounds really interesting and it would be good to try to keep an eye on the study to see if Paul Mason is correct in his view that this will be successful in Belgium but possibly not elsewhere.
