SFGate report, as learned via @sukhjit of Sukhjit.Me:
Last Saturday, we told you the story of Adam Jackson, who pointed a Web camera out the window of his Tenderloin apartment and created a hot Internet site.
Today, we tell you how it all went wrong, from a flurry of death threats to being targeted by cyberbullies. But just when it looked like the thugs had bullied Jackson into taking down his site, the community rallied behind the concept of neighborhood cameras. In fact, the interest may be stronger than ever.
At least one near-term outcome of AdamsBlock.com will be OurBlock.TV.
What is the status of OurBlock.TV? I haven’t been able to find any information…
sukhjit: @silverton Guess who I am sitting near at #teensintech @adamjackson from http://is.gd/hWmk (expand) Going to ask him what’s new with that…
silverton: @sukhjit fantastic! ppl in the hood extremely interested.
sukhjit: @silverton @adamjackson says the cams are coming back. Sounds like he’s doing great work with #glide right now. Gonna try and help 2.
silverton: @sukhjit OurBlock.TV could b global model 4 community safety, uplift; VC prolly not interested. Foundations? Grant-writing is a #majorundertaking
