This is “a weekend of workshops  and practical sessions aimed at
creating a more unified West Midlands community of people and groups
interested in actively pursuing democratic and liberating social
change.

There will be a wide variety of workshops on offer, with topics
ranging from alternative media to environmental issues, and from food
politics to setting up co-operatives.

We aim to provide the space for people to meet, discuss, and plan how
to take action.”

A piece of PR we couldn’t be bothered to re-write.

BiNS is mostly by Jon Bounds a Birmingham based social web consultant, producer and writer., You can hire him to work on your social web campaigns or anything really—he's not fussy. Follow him on twitter or drop him an email.

There's also the odd bit of stuff from Danny Smith.

Feel free to send us anything you're interested in - or think we might be.
