To celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights today, I've been posting up the 30 articles to identi.ca and twitter, and it's been interesting seeing the reaction of people as I've been posting them. I've also noticed that there's a few there that I felt uncomfortable putting up as I know there are people and organizations that I deal with that don't necessarily support those rights (except as far as they are required to by law), and that's brought home to me how important this document still is 60 years on. There's a lot still to fight for, but I'd say there's a lot to celebrate in the last 60 years.

If you want to read more, here's a lovely positive note from the folks at AmnestyUK.
