I'm pioneering the practice of social reporting as a mix of online journalism, facilitation and collaboration using social media. Recently I have carried out open explorations for Big Lottery Fund, Carnegie UK Trust and Nominet Trust into the role of social technology in community action, rural networking, and the lives of young and older people. These explorations combined a a process of curating past research, online ideas development, storytelling workshops and interviews.
