The 2008 Global Voices Citizen Media Summit has now begun. If you're not in the room you can watch the live webcast here.  A live IRC web chat is taking place on freenode.net at  #globalvoices (join from mibbit.com if you aren't familiar with IRC clients). There is also a liveblog, a Flickr tag, etc.

The program for today and tomorrow is here.

Slides from yesterday's smaller GV Advocacy meeting are now online here. Hopefully many of today's presentations will also be added as the day progresses.

I will write more about the meeting in the coming days. Meanwhile, here is the post I wrote after the 2006 Global Voices Delhi Summit.
