Happy to announce that my dear friend and colleague, Manuel Castells is joining this illustrious group\n
Because some of you work in Washington, I want to make a plea for a more enlightened visa policy, so extraordinary students like our engineering team can stay in this country after they graduate.\n
Already five of these ventures have moved into the start-up mode and we want to make closer ties with the LA and Silicon Valley start-up communities.\n

The VozMob project uses participatory technology design to create free software grounded in community needs (all VozMob code is available on drupal.org and at http://code.vozmob.net). The code created by the project is bundled into the VozMob Drupal Distribution, which makes it easy to post content to the web from cheap mobile phones via voice calls, SMS, or MMS.\n\n
Thanks to Microsoft for their extraordinary support.\n
