Dear all,

As part of spreading the gospel of Web Science, we are in a competition to spread
it addressing students from all over the world through a MOOC
- a massive open online course on Web Science with free content in English.

We have submitted an application video and we now compete against more than 240 competitors
for 10 MOOC Fellowships provided by Iversity and the Foundation for German Science
whereby each fellowship provides funds to create a new MOOC about any academic topic.

In order to make the first cut in the competition,  we need 1 minute from *you*:
Please login to https://moocfellowship.org/submissions/web-science
- you can do so by using your facebook account or by creating a new account on that platform -
and hit the green VOTE / ABSTIMMEN button.

And of course, you do not have to vote for the "cat in the bag" (as we would say in German),
but you can see our application video and our course concept on that very page.

If possible: share this information with your students, colleagues, friends -- the more who
vote for us the more likely that MOOC on Web Science will happen.

Please do it now!

Thanks a lot!
Steffen
