Amnesty International will use the tag aireport2007 for all material related to the report. There will be a blog on the Report 2007 site, photos on Flickr, video on Youtube and you can find it all by searching for the tag on sites like Technorati - here: http://technorati.com/posts/tag/aireport2007
And you can rate the material you find and leave comments if you wish, we'll be watching what you write as well. If you've any comments you want to send to us directly, email them to thereport@amnesty.org.
