Projects completed by two organizations -- Search for Common Ground & Web Lab -- promoted online discussion about the terrorist attacks on the US, 11 Sept 2001. Each of these online groups elicited dialogue about the events & tracked the responses of approximately 340 online members for 2 to 4 weeks. Four beta groups & four dialogue test groups were formed.
