There are many who support and stand behind you. Maybe this has been done and I've not seen it or are missing it, but here is my suggestion:
Folks in the OWS Media Group (or members of the individual Working Groups) should compile a daily podcast summarizing the day's events. This podcast should cover the following items: -Summary of the days events -Summary of General Assembly and votes -Summary of various Working Groups and votes -Important information about upcoming actions -Eye witness accounts of important happenings -Current needs of the occupiers -Maybe a few interviews of folks in/around the area participating and observers
I think it would be a great companion to the livestreams going on. It would allow for a historical record of the evolution of the movement. It would also help solidify and bring up to speed anyone who wants to understand what's happened and where things are going.
I would do it myself, but I leave the suggestion to more capable hands and maybe someone will run with it.
Good luck. -Maz
+1 if you think this is a good idea. We need to become more organized as time goes on and get more ideas down in a concrete format. There's a place for debating policies as well, but we really need to get the methodology and work flow down to make this movement effective. Basics first folks.

If this movement does not organize and define itself, the media will be more than happy to do it for them.
It is already the Tea Party of the left.
