Our 35th ambassador is Paul Sumner Downey, an advocate for innovation in Open Source and the Web. You can also read his OneWebDay post on blog.whatfettle.com in its original context.
Inspired by a Earth Day, One Web Day is an event, held each year on the 22nd September to celebrate and cherish this amazing, precious thing called The Web. There are no less than 40 suggested ways you can participate, including signing up as one of 100 daily ambassadors.
For my part as todays ambassador, I shied away from telling a single, personal story about how the Web has impacted me, because thats a continual thing, and decided instead to draw a poster. This started out as a series of Home Sweet Home sampler like mottos, drifted through some gentle Web homilies and ended up in fire and brimstone: Youre going to hell, RIA and RIAA lovers!. Whoops!
