So here is the brightly colored Silona reporting from the land of black suits, DC.  I spoke yesterday at the Politics Online Conference [1].  Basically I organized a panel with Steven Clift [2] from dowire.org [3] and e-democracy [4], Dan Newman [5] from Maplight.org [6], Sarah Schacht [7] from KnowledgeAsPower.org [8], and Tim Bonnemann [9] from intellitics.com [10].

 We did basic overviews and then Steven lets us create a wiki page illustrating both the panelists prezos as well as the audience's resources.  http://pages.e-democracy.org/Politics_online_conference_panel_2008 [11]

 I loved bringing a little barcamp [12] flavor to the politicos!
