- Vodcasting - generate a video feed which you can then import into a client such as iTunes or Miro which will automatically download new videos to your computer when a new video is updated. You could subscribe to the 'Latest Videos' feed, or to a specific Member's video feed, or pick your feed by topic or country.

just to be a place where you upload and download video or media but where you
communicate and organise. This will have a URL like: engagemedia.org/Members/username

- Post a News item about a current social or environmental issue, a work you are producing developments in the world of media and activism,
tactical media, new participatory culture breeding on the
Internet, or technical developments in media sharing on the internet.
- Contact other Members of EngageMedia to discuss collaborations or just to say hello.

on videos, media or postings after you've viewed them. Please try to be constructive at
all times and consider your comments before pressing Save. :)
