Hi People --
Just want to mention that I have been working with the Coffee Party.
We've been creating a bunch of network applications, that feel quite exciting to me.
The growth of this network tends to be driven off the CP Facebook pages -- where Annabel Park can post something very brief ...[more]

Hi People --
It's been a while since we've done anything with this Purple Place - but there's lots going on in related venues.
One thing I've been doing -- is hooking up with the Coffee Party. Right now, they have a vote on Money in Politics going on -- somewhat like MoveOn -- and anybody her...[more]

I just wrote the following: Dear Congresswoman Capps, I stopped the survey at the first question, because my highest priority wasn't there. I believe the highest priority for Congress in 2010 is to STOP what You are doing, take a breath together, and begin cooperating, as our Commander in Chief is m...[more]

Thanks for taking a look at Catrien's site, Bruce. I, too, think we are on our way to worldwide understanding.
More soon. I'm an algebra II tutor at the moment, visiting my grandson.

This morning, just continuing to feel my way, I started seeing this "Sphere" concept as a central organizing principle for this emerging new politics.
There are a lot of people out there thinking about high-tech approaches to a new politics. Yesterday, in his interview on C-SPAN, Ralph Benko was...[more]

Good morning. Just want to catch up on a few things....
For one, JaneAnne -- I did take a look at
www.energydoorways.com -- and I understand how you feel. You say "We citizens of the world truly must unite."
That's not so simple, of course -- but...[more]

I have another concern. I just received a post from my friend in Japan. If you have time, would you please read her latest blog? Are you aware that the U.S. hold live fire drills at the base of Mt. Fuji? We citizens of the world truly must unite.
Thanks, JaneAnne

Bruce, 'The Sphere' is fabulous. My number is 14891. I would love to compare my sphere with yours. I think this is an answer to how to get along. It is always easiest to start with commonalities and then progress to differences. Differences can be the way various questions are interpreted. Some of t...[more]

Our concept is based on a fast-click approach to issues, where points of view or facets of something complicated are represented by brief bullet-points and
everything is written as a bottom line.
In our space, you come in and make a few quick choices about what is important to you, and you are invited to introduce new themes or subjects or issues or approaches to issues, always in the form of bullet-points that other people can quickly check off if they agree or are interested.
In this way, we believe we can build a kind of broadband democracy that gets all critical issues on the table at the same time, gives everybody a voice, calls in expertise from everywhere, and liberates our national governance from the crushing limits of our intensely partisan system.
