Welcome, 3,000th MobileActive: Ignacio Nieto, Universidad Andres Bello in Chile

Welcome to MobileActive's 3,000th community member, Ignacio Nieto, Universidad Andres Bello in Chile.

Since our inception in 2005, we have grown from 40 handpicked practitioners using mobile phones in their social change work to an astonishing 3,000 participants in the MobileActive community. You come from NGOs, the academic community, the private sector, government, and as individual organizers and activists. You are technologists and developers, bankers, marketers, healthcare workers, and consultants. You come from more than 60 countries (63, to be exact) and you are interested in everything mobile - from mobile banking and mobiles in economic development to grassroots organizing and advocacy and mobiles for better health care.

In short, you are an amazing, diverse, passionate, and commited community.

To become part of MobileActive, simply register on the site to find others, communicate with them, post announcements and blog posts, and list your tools, social change projects using mobile phones, and list vendors you use. You will receive occasional announcements and our newsletter, if you want. If you simply want to say informed, sign up for our low-traffic mailing list for the occasional MobileActive newsletter that keeps you informed of the 'mobile for good' field.

If you are on Facebook, join MobileActive in the Facebook Group and follow me on twitter here where I post updates on all things social mobile.

Thank you for being MobileActive!
