Peter Deitz is a… bridge-builder, online activist, micro-philanthropist
Hi Peter, who are ya? I am a blogger, social media consultant, and the founder of Social Actions. Since July 2006, I’ve been working to advance the field of micro-philanthropy by building what I call Web 3.0, the open philanthropic web. My work is based on the idea that peer-to-peer citizen initiatives are the best incubator for broad social change. I live and work in Montreal, Canada.
What place do you call home? Montreal, QC and Twitter
What place do you want to visit for the first time? Mexico

A constant challenge? Convincing people that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts
A moment of triumph? Google Tech Talk, September 2008
Soundtrack to your day? “Run boy run” by Lee Hazlewood
Superman or Batman? Batman
A good factoid? No TV. No Car.
Who would you like to collaborate with? Clay Shirky
A blog you read everyday? Have Fun – Do Good, by Britt Bravo
