You can now log in and answer the 100 questions that were chosen to ask the delegates and also follow along at the DK blog.
The Berliners and tourists who have gathered around the square are standing here calmly watching the event. The atmosphere is like nothing I have ever experienced before. With each question asked, people in the crowd seem to be taking a moment to think about it, to ask themselves. The extreme seriousness of the issues discussed is being conveyed by the quiet 'mess' of 112 Free Voices talking into individual microphones all at the same time. "This is an art performance of electrifying energy" says Michael, a berliner who has come to watch the event.
"I can't hear what the participants are saying, and my back hurts, but I just can't leave. I am going to stand here all through this thing. This is so powerful - the serenity and concentration of the people around the table is 'contagious'. It really gets you. I feel like I am watching an art performance, and its content is incredible."
The energy coming out of the middle of the square is really very hard to describe. Being here today is all about feeling the strong and silent power of this moment.

"If revolution is indeed "the sex of politics" -- as American critic H.L. Mencken once called it -- Berlin became on Saturday the capital of a new kind of revolution: glamorous, digital and corporate-funded." http://www.dw-world.de/dw/article/0,2144,2169613,00.html
