[Freedombox-discuss] X24 Europe

[Lee Fisher]

"X24 Europe" (and the earlier "Exercise X24") might help refine the use 
cases for the mesh subcomponent of FreedomBoxes. It relies on Twitter 
and Facebook as two transports.

"On 24-25 September 2010, the Immersive Visualization Center 
(VizCenter), San Diego State University, California, hosted a virtual 
HADR event called 'Exercise X24'. X24 involved over 12,500 people from 
79 nations and 90 U.S. government, non-government organizations, and 
public/private partners in a collaborative environment using 
crowdsourcing, social media, and cloud computing applications. This was 
the first time a collaborative HADR exercise of this scale occurred 
online and integrated into real events. EUCOM is hosting X24 Europe, the 
next evolution of X24 scheduled for five-days in March 2011."
