Featured Project: On March 5th, 2009, Kara Andrade and David Cohn presented their project, Spot.us.

Here's what she had to say about it:

"Spot.Us, www.spot.us, is a nonprofit project of the Center for Media Change. We are an open source project, to pioneer community funded reporting. Through Spot.Us the public can commission journalists to do investigations on important and perhaps overlooked stories. All donations are tax deductible and if a news organization buys exclusive rights to the content, your donation will be reimbursed. Otherwise, all content is made available to all through a Creative Commons license. It¹s a marketplace where independent reporters, community members and news organizations can come
together and collaborate."

We're hosting monthly Stone Soup Dinner Parties where guests bring ingredients for a meal, and good ideas for the conversation. Each month we feature a new project that is either in the works or just off the ground. Guests also get a chance to talk about what they are doing and ask for support from the group.
