TechPresident and the Open House Project

Yesterday saw the launch of two new projects silly enough to include me as a writer and/or advisor. The first is TechPresident:

TechPresident is a new group blog from Personal Democracy Forum that covers how the 2008 presidential candidates are using the web, and vice versa, how content generated by voters is affecting the campaign.

My first post there is about the Edwards blogger affair as a game-changer in campaign politics.

The second is the Open House Project:

The last time the House rules were seriously reconsidered was 1995, when the Republicans took over Congress. Since then, the internet has changed the way that Americans communicate with each other. With a new Congressional mandate to open Congress, it’s time for citizens to help open up the process. One of the problems is that, well, no one person really knows how to make it happen. It’s a big job. The Open House Project is a temporary working group designed to make recommendations to Congress on easy ways to begin the process.

And my first post there is about creating a single standard for congressional offices to tag and bundle the chunks of information they produce.
