French bloggers launch a collaborative NGO support blog

A while ago I wrote about french bloggers preparing a new initiative. We are officially launching the site now. Our goal is to create a common repository for goodwill initiatives supporting NGOs, humanitarian organisations, and altruistic causes.

Over 20 bloggers joined us on a Friday night mid-december at vodeo.tv's offices for a 3 hour shooting exercise. We used amateur settings (a white wall), my prosumer HD camera, the lamps of the office, and a lot of white T-shirts. Vinvin & Mry wrote the text, Mry managed the logistics, I did the camera + sound, Mry helped me out with the editing on a Mac. I hope you like it, and that you come back often during the year!

The official site of this initiative is on www.ouvrons-nous.com.

Update: only a few hours later, there's already a hilarious parody of the video with a new sound track !!! :D Fred de Mai you are totally crazy :)
