دانلود کتاب انسان دوستان دیجیتال – چگونه داده های بزرگ چهره واکنش بشردوستانه را تغییر می دهد

This is the story of thousands of largely anonymous volunteers who stepped forward in times of need. They worked long, sleepless hours for free and without expectation of praise (or blame). They did this because they saw a need. My role in this, given the accidents of interest and experience, has often been as a catalyst. While the stories that follow are told from my own voice and perspective, this should not be interpreted as taking away from the hundreds and thousands of other volunteers who each have their own stories to tell. On the contrary, I seek to amplify some of our shared stories based on how I personally experienced them. Like others, I simply found myself in the midst of these digital humanitarian eἀorts due to hap­penstance and the convergence of my professional interests and personal needs. One of these needs was to do something—anything—to fill those dreadful hours not knowing whether the woman I loved had survived the earthquake in Haiti. I did not catalyze the digital response to the earth­quake with a grand strategy in mind. I reacted because I was anxious and desperate. From that point on digital humanitarian eἀorts took on a life of their own.
