OpenCongress.org debuted yesterday... what do you think about it?
www.opencongress.org provides background information on bills before congress - I got the heads up about it from Josh Marshall's TPM. Looks like a great project - very useful. Take a peek at it and report back. Looks like something we should get the word out on.
my wish is that we keep this kicked enough to get some folks to reference it and watch it over it as it emerges. Will it become a great source of info (it has tons of potential to do so) - or will it get overtaken by the busy bees at rw sites (eg Free Republic, & Little Green Footballs.)\
Hope other folks will k&r (I almost never promote my own posts in this way) so that more folks at least get an intro to this site.
as I kick my own thread... hate to do it - and is against my general posting MO - but I really hope that folks review and become familiar with this tool which has the potential to further our investigatory forays per congressional legislation.
