OpenSpace-OnlineR is nominated for "The Top 10 Who Are Changing the World of Internet and Politics"

Dear Gabriella and OS friends,

While I was casting my vote for OpenSpace-Online, I was remembering the
excitement of my first experience being connected in real-time to the Open
Space community.  Several years before I was able to attend my first OSonOS
in Halifax, you offered the pilot of OpenSpace-Online for the OS community,
which provided me with the opportunity to "meet" several OS practitioners
who have since become my friends.  

Also while casting my vote, I could see people around the globe having
conversations that change the world, using OpenSpace-Online.  And I could
also see you being honored at the awards ceremony in Issy-les-Moulineaux as
the World E-Gov forum!

Dancing hugs,

Christine

Subject: OpenSpace-OnlineR is nominated for "The Top 10 Who Are Changing the
World of Internet and Politics"

Dear friends and colleagues,

I am so thrilled to share this news with you: These days we received the
fantastic message, that the OpenSpace-OnlineR Methodology is nominated for
"The Top 10 Who Are Changing the World of Internet and Politics".

The World E-Government Forum and PoliticsOnline recognizes the Top 10
pioneers, organizations and companies having the greatest impact on the way
the Internet is bringing democracy online. They say, this year marked the
toughest year ever for the jury in choosing the 20 finalists. Everyone  from
all over the world is invited to review the 20 finalists at
<http://www.politicsonline.com/> www.PoliticsOnline.com and to
electronically vote for the Top Politics & Internet World Changer of 2006.
The winners, those top 10 nominees who receive the most votes, will be
invited as honored guests to the World E-Government Forum October 18-20, in
Paris, France.http://www.worldegovforum.com/?lang=en

Please read, how the jury described OpenSpace-Online: "The "do-it-yourself"
OpenSpace-Online E-Participation Real-Time Methodology is a powerful
philosophy that has the potential to become one of the most earth shifting
Internet meeting and conferencing methods in society, politics, education
and other fields. OpenSpace-Online was developed by Change Facilitator
Gabriela Ender and her team in Germany (1999-2002). The easy to use
innovation enables fast collaboration, knowledge-sharing, problem solving
and results-oriented dialogs about urgent topics for small and large groups
in real-time without 'human' online moderators. During the virtual-led and
structured working process all participants are equal. It also bridges
value-gaps between online and offline collaboration / participation in a
wonderful unique way."

I was so surprised, I had no knowledge about this all. I am enthused about
the nomination, particularly, because this jury looked not only for quantity
regarding content and usability, but also for quality in terms of
value-based and results-oriented communication as well as supporting
sustainable further work.

Reviewing the brief profiles shows that the conferencing method differs very
clearly from the other finalists, who are mainly political on-line magazines
and Internet portals or Internet campaigns.The winners will be those Top 10
nominees who receive the most votes. Some of the nominees have several
millions users and network members. Do we have a realistic chance to reach
the Top 10? Knowing that so many miracles are possible - I believe we have a
chance.

But we need your help. Please help us to make the impossible possible!

Please forward this news to your contacts or networks and ask for their
votes. Each voice is so important. Its all about opening more and more
spaces for selforganization and participation - regardless whether it is
online or offline - its all about more and more globally consciouness for
passion and responsibility and for putting the people in the centre. If you
have good contacts to international press people, please email me:
gabriela.ender at OpenSpace-Online.com I would like to send them our press
release very soon. The voting deadline is very close! Thank YOU so much for
each vote and each support!!!

of September)

Warmly,
Gabriela
