		<title>The Democracy Video Challenge</title>
		<description><![CDATA[YouTube, The US State Dept and some other groups have been sponsoring a contest called the &#8220;Democracy Video Challenge.&#8221; I like the concept, which has surfaced some excellent content from around the world. But it&#8217;s unfortunate that their voting procedures are more about democracy theater than democracy itself. 
In any case, the community manager is [...]]]></description>

		<title>UN ponders &#8220;10 Commandments&#8221; for the Internet</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ICANN&#8217;s Rod Beckstrom linked to this article by Janna Quitney Anderson, motivating this response from a well-known I* critic:
The problem with things like this is they obscure the fact the internet is a collective of private networks, there&#8217;s no public component. If the UN would like a network to abide by a certain 10 principles [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Internet has lots of life left in it</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Posted a comment as a response to
The Internet Is Dying
View more presentations from NicolasMoerman.

My reaction:

The Internet has lots of life left in it. There’s much more growth to come. Apparent transitions or phases reflect distinct elements that were evident in the founding dreams of hypermedia.
 Web 1.0 = Hyper-linking (realized as URLs and HTML links [...]]]></description>

		<title>10Questions: Rank the Choices</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Overall, the response by the candidates to the 10Questions experiment was shameful. Only Mike Huckabee, to his everlasting credit, responded right away. Beyond that, only Edwards, Gravel, and Obama (via clips form campaign questions) answered by the deadline. No others responded, despite 3 reminders (!) on the Op-Ed page of the New York Times! If [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tuesday Tracker Results: 2007.10.30</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This week&#8217;s turnout set a new record. A wave of Ron Paul supporters showed up only minutes after the poll opened, well before I had released any announcements. There was another surge of voting after I posted a &#8220;polls are open&#8221; diary on on RedState. RedState&#8217;s owners would probably be very reluctant to admit it, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tuesday Tracker Results: 2007.10.23</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dodd&#8217;s advance to 2nd place in depth in the DEM Tuesday Tracker echoes the results of the most recent DailyKos frontpage poll. GOP participation has fallen off drastically, probably because RedState, where the poll is announced, has tied itself into knots over the prominence of Ron Paul supporters there, and an admin wiped out the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tuesday Tracker Results: 2007.10.09</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This week&#8217;s Tracker produced largest turnout so far, probably because the Republican debate in Michigan kept Ron Paul supporters on a high level of alert throughout the evening.  Paul voters crushed their opposition, most of whom have made barely any effort to show up for the last couple of weeks. 
The turnout on the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tuesday Tracker Results: 2007.10.02</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I sent out email announcements for the Tuesday Tracker for the last couple of weeks, prompting many participants to return. But the response from DailyKos has dropped off, and the usual Ron Paul swarms haven&#8217;t been materializing. This week, instead of posting diaries across the political blogosphere right at noon, I&#8217;ll try late afternoon or [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tuesday Tracker Results: 2007.09.25</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Results remain fairly consistent with previous polls. Once again, John Edwards took the Democratic poll in every dimension. A relatively low turnout in the Republican poll permitted a 10th round IRV victory for Fred Thompson. Ron Paul started out leading with 1st rank votes, and also took the lead in overall depth. Round after round, [...]]]></description>
