NRN: Progressive NASA and Space Policy Under a New Administration Part I

How Online Organizing in ‘04 and ‘08 Can Improve our Federal Government in ‘09

Recently I was asked to reflect on how the lessons of online organizing by those of us who worked in the 2004 Presidential campaign have impacted not only the 2008 Presidential campaign (in which Dean ‘04 and Clark ‘04 veterans teamed up to create Blue State Digital, the technology backbone of Obama’s online operation), but [...]

Possibly the most important video you’ll see this year: Lessig08
