PirateBox on German TV

Last week I was interviewed by Matthias Rockl, a journalist for on3.de (the Bavarian Broadcasting Corporation) for a segment called Bayer in Brooklyn (Bavarian in Brooklyn). The piece went live today on German TV and has also been posted on the on3.de site.

I have to say that I’ve been truly amazed by the enthusiastic reception the PirateBox project has received – as I mentioned during the interview, there are now PirateBoxes up and running all over the world. For instance, this weekend the Center for Contemporary Culture in Barcelona hosted a Bookcamp which included a session featuring the PirateBox.

Since late January 2011, I’ve tracked over 70 online and print stories about the project and to date my wiki has logged over 720,000 page views.
