Using technology for social awareness


HollabackNYC

Here is an example of mobile technology as a weapon against street harassment, started in NYC. Victims of street gender/sexual/racial harassment can take a photo of the harasser, email it to their city's hollaback blog, and thus make a public statement against this problem. There is one for Boston as well.

Very interesting "participatory" use of technology to, I guess, advertise their service and perhaps grow brand loyalty? Not sure, but either way I thought I'd share...
