		<description><![CDATA[UnionBook is a brand new social network, but one specifically for international union activists and supporters.

Welcome to my latest attempt at long-tail-stretching &#8211; laborgeek.org, a reading list for Web2.0 technology in the international labour movement.
This isn’t really a site in its own right &#8211; All it does is signpost the way to current resources that you might find useful. Of course, this is working on my slightly unconventional definition of [...]]]></description>

I spoke at a fringe today on online organising, along with Eric Lee and  APT&#8217;s Paul Smith. For the 99.995% of trade unionists who didn&#8217;t make [...]]]></description>

This courtesy of Brian Shaler&#8217;s very cute crappy graphs graph-maker.

You have a communications department, and an organising [...]]]></description>

Sure you love being a trade unionist, but if you&#8217;re the type who&#8217;s ever thought it might be *even* nicer to be a trade unionist on a private mediterranean island, with lovely views, free beer and the superpower of flight, this might just be one for you.
