A previous family committment is keeping me away from the Personal Democracy Forum this year. The line-up tomorrow looks stellar. If you will be live blogging the conference, add a link to your blog in my comment section or drop me a note. If an audio feed is planned, let us know as well. Also, those interested in connecting with E-Democracy.Org and models for local e-democracy that bring people together from across the partisan divide, should look for online advocacy expert Alan Rosenblatt our new board member at PDF. We'd like to be invited into more communities around the U.S. and beyond to help you engage more people in local community and democracy. IMHO nationally "personal democracy" is in many ways dividing and segmenting the most politically interested into squeezable mini-money machines. I'd love to hear what ideas conference attendees have for creating "our democracy" or "Our Space" instead of just MySpace.
