The tweetup is to increase the awareness for “Improving Collective Intelligence”.

Tools like Twitter and other social networks allow global participation of a large number of people in solving some of the World’s pressing problems. This Tweetup is aimed at identifying some of these problems, brainstorming about ways to solve them and raise the awareness of the power of Collective Intelligence.

Specially, a Collective Intelligence Challenge organized by “The Program For The Future” will be the first step towards the effort. A description of the project (from the website – http://thetechvirtual.org/projects)

Winning entries will be displayed in the participating museums.
