InterOccupy.net is a networking and organizing tool that developed in response to the need for organizers across the country and internationally to inform and coordinate about local, regional, and national Occupy Wall Street events. Once the movement started spreading, the need for a robust
communication network became apparent. Through a series of open conference calls starting in September of 2011, organizers from New York, Los Angeles, Portland, and Kalamazoo, among others, decided there needed to be a discussion and collaboration on large-scale direct action. By November, they had registered the domain and started the infrastructural work of
coalition building across many different chapters and issues within the larger Occupy Movement.
