What is OneWebDay?

OneWebDay (OWD) is a celebration of the Internet's ability to foster communication, collaboration and participation. Susan Crawford, a professor at the Cardozo School of Law and board member of ICANN, came up with the idea for OneWebDay and wrote about it in her blog in 2005: "OneWebDay is not just about pictures. It's about action. We'll be encouraging global efforts to wire villages, connect schools, put up more hotspots, build collective online artworks, write and perform collective online music, show 'days on the web,' and many other barn-raising and creative and connecting projects. We will have a major offline component, with people telling stories about how the web has changed their lives, and showing each other special OneWebDay artifacts."
