I was interviewed by Edy and Whisker for their Zombie Tech Podcast. We chatted about the history of Geeks without Bounds, how it was conceived, the role of social media vs traditional media, and how virtual volunteers can help.
We also talk about the ideas and applications that come out of hackerspaces, hackathons, gameification, and crisis mapping. We discuss the ramification and the ethics involved in the applications, IT departments and of course Zombies!

I announced this project on last week’s Crew Show…a sitcom based around a family of zombies. The Munsters meets Married With Children.
I call it “Meet the Zombies” (it’s just a working title). The show exists in a world where there are normal people, and then some people are zombies. In public, the zombies have to act normal, covering up little things like limbs falling off and their insatiable desire to consume braaaaiiiins (lest they be discovered as zombies and decapitated) . The show focuses on a couple of Zombies and their two children.
I’m thinking Keanu will be perfect as the Dad. I think he’s ready to make the jump to TV much like his buddy Charlie Sheen did.
Anyway, I believe I’ve just discovered the show’s theme song…
