As the news unfold in Gaza, there are protests in Second Life and a Twitter press-conference (hat tip: Joshua Fouts via BoingBoing).

All that is in our power is to wish our best to our friends at Gaza/Sderot project, who are now wondering:

How can we fulfill our mission in such circumstances? We are currently seeking means to go further. Please do not hesitate to write us, communicate with our characters and our crews. Despite the big noise of weapons, our voices can be listened to.

And we’d just like to add that your voice is an important one in the chorus of Global Voices.

Arte.tv is currently producing a fascinating web documentary Gaza/Sderot: Life in Spite of Everything. Every day during its running time, two short (a couple minutes each) videos are added to the site - one shot in the Palestinian city of Gaza, the other in the neighboring Israeli town of Sderot, just across the border. The videos are presented in an innovative format, side by side, separated by the “/” representing the border between the two cities. Context is key here: to watch one video without the other  would be to miss the bigger picture.

The video content is aimed at the international community and is available with subtitles in several languages. We have teamed up with our friends at french web studio Upian to help them with streamlining their custom video subtitling process which is part of the back office infrastructure they have erected for this project.

Take a minute and check it out! You can also embed the latest Gaza/Sderot video feed into your blog.
