FYI,

Some of you will have come across this before I assume?
I'd heard of it before but not seen their site\.\.
http://www.ushahidi.com/

As we all continue to explore how communities can collaborate towards
shared goals, this example surely deserves a little "wow"\.

Thoughts on lessons for openEHR welcome\.\.\.
