Social Media Maps Provide Global View of Occupy Wall Street
One month after the first protesters showed up on Wall Street, similar movements have popped up in cities throughout the world — and many more are being planned or discussed. As "Occupy Wall Street" evolves into "Occupy Everywhere," several new services are mapping the social media chatter surrounding them. Similar to the dashboards news outlets like Al Jazeera and independent projects like IAmJan25 and HyperCities created to track social media surrounding the Arab Spring, Occupy Wall Street maps now show where relevant geotaged tweets, YouTube videos and Flickr images are being posted, in real time. "I don't really have a strong political opinion," says Humphrey Flowerdew, who started mapping Occupy Wall Street tweets on Cravify.com. "I'm just interested in technology and what practical things you can do with it." He and his partner Trung Huynh, who are both based in London, originally built Cravify to aggregate and map real estate listings.

What is an ACD? An adjournment contemplating dismissal, commonly referred to as an ACD, is a form of conditional probation. It is not an admission of guilt, nor is it an affirmation of innocence, Stolar explained. But ACDs do have other legal implications, he said, particularly for non-citizens and for people who may be involved in other types of criminal or civil cases. A defendant who accepts an offer of an ACD does not have to decide whether to plead guilty or not guilty. According to a source in the district attorney’s office, ACDs are typically offered to “first time offenders, who maybe didn’t make a great decision but who you know you are not going to be asking for jail time for” because it’s “not someone who benefits from being entered into the criminal justice system and [they] don’t deserve having a black mark on their record.” The second mass arrest of Occupy Wall Street protesters resulted in more than 700 arrests on the Brooklyn Bridge on Oct. 1. A chilling effect?
Occupy Wall Street: The Most Important Thing in the World Now
Published in The Nation. I was honored to be invited to speak at Occupy Wall Street on Thursday night. Since amplification is (disgracefully) banned, and everything I said had to be repeated by hundreds of people so others could hear (a.k.a. “the human microphone”), what I actually said at Liberty Plaza had to be very short. With that in mind, here is the longer, uncut version of the speech. I love you. And I didn’t just say that so that hundreds of you would shout “I love you” back, though that is obviously a bonus feature of the human microphone. Yesterday, one of the speakers at the labor rally said: “We found each other.” If there is one thing I know, it is that the 1 percent loves a crisis. And there is only one thing that can block this tactic, and fortunately, it’s a very big thing: the 99 percent. That slogan began in Italy in 2008. “Why are they protesting?” But there are important differences too. Occupy Wall Street, on the other hand, has chosen a fixed target. - What we wear.

LOS ANGELES (RNN) - College students across the country are preparing for Thursday's national day of protests in unity with the Occupy Wall Street movement. As of Wednesday evening, 90 colleges were confirmed for Occupy College's "National Student Solidarity Protest," according to the group's website. Natalia Abrams, a spokeswoman and facilitator for the group, expects the number to surpass 100. This will be the second protest of the fledgling group, which sponsored a walk-out on college campuses Oct. 5. Thursday's protests are planned for 4:30 p.m. ET. [SLIDESHOW: Occupy Wall Street protests spread] "It's not specifically a walk-out, because we don't want to confuse the protest," Abrams said about the new Occupy Colleges event. Instead, participating colleges are encouraged to host sit-ins and readings, in which they can spread awareness about the Occupy Wall Street movements and how they can become involved at a grassroots level. Abrams also has a message to deliver to skeptics.
