INVESTIGATIVE RESEARCH ON THE WEB: SKILL FOR ACTIVISTS AND INDEPENDENT MEDIA
This workshop will cover the skills and techniques that investigative journalists, and private-eyes use to do deep digging research on the internet. It will cover mastering the art of crafting a good search, getting valuable information to come to you, and accessing the wealth of information on the net that search engines like google can't find.
Pick up skills you can use everyday. Jammed packed from edge to edge, even an expert researcher will learn a lot!
The presenter, Tim Groves, is a Toronto based investigative researcher who shares his skills with a variety of activist and community groups. In 2002 he began learning property research to support a squatting campaign. Since then he has developed a wide range of research skills. He will be in Philly hot on the tails of attending the Investigative Reporters and Editors Conference in Baltimore.

Submitted by jon peppers (not verified) on Sat, 06/13/2009 - 1:45pmHere's a project for you. The cold blooded execution of X MOVE associate John Gilbride who was murdered the evening before he was to have Court ordered unsupervisied visitation of his son born to a MOVE member. A VERY good place to start would be the MOVE compound in West Phila. but don't expect to be welcomed with open arms.
