My frame of reference is workplace-level organizing. There the problem is that employees have adopted the employer's narrative, and the challenge is to convince them to ditch that in favor of a solidarity-based view. And the reality (in my experience, anyway) is that given a choice, people choose to side with the powers that be. So this process takes a whole lot of one-on-one time. This is not to say that tech tools cannot help, but they cannot supercharge the process.
Once consensus is reached on that level, of course, the tools you describe become awesomely effective. But the hard part is getting granny to bring out her pots and pans. The fact is that what we're experiencing right now is a top-down disaster. -Paul Krugman
I'm writing about Smart Grids at the moment for a client. Smart Grids enable two way communication within an energy system, and can accommodate all the intermittent sources (wind, wave, solar, etc). I'll post it here once the client has published it.
What we need for organizing is a Smart Grid of a different kind. You can't be me, I'm taken
