In my search for a political wiki, I found myself drawn to several different sites featuring blogs, forums and other open discussions about the political world.
However, this particular story caught my eye. Labeled, "An open letter to the political blogosphere," the post talks about how vital blogs and wikis have become to political campaigners.
The author is attempting to motivate voters to take political matters into their own hands. It urges politicians to realize what a valuable tool the internet really is, and how it could completely change our conventional ideas about campaigning.
Even more interesting, the man who wrote this blog FOUNDED WIKIPEDIA. Talk about a successful guy--he's created the largest and most effective online wiki ever. He is a credible person and politicans should take his initiative. They should allow the public to take politics into their own hands and make the big decisions.
As Jimmy Wales explains, we should move into an "era of net-driven participatory politics."
