I think it's important to link to both the salon article about the first
shipment and the video that whispered media did which went out on the indymedia
newsreal. BOth of those are about the first shipment but they will answer a lot
of people's questions.

Salon.com article:
http://www.salon.com/tech/feature/2002/09/23/antiglobal_geeks/index.html

Video about the project: http://www.whisperedmedia.org/watch.html

if nothing else we can use teh image from the video activism page as an image
for the feature.
