SXSW 2005: Deliberative Democracy and Interactive Technology

Hmm. A lot of really smart people were up there talking, but I’m not sure I really got into the swing of the point they were making. Well, really that they were all making different ones maybe. I didn’t really take that much out of it I guess. I got really activisted out last year, so I may just still be recovering.

On the bright side, Zach had swung down and I got to say hi, see what they were up to w/ CivicSpace. I love picking his brain because this Drupal-based thing I’m getting down and dirty with is similar on so many levels (unfortunately, the community-scaling, which is what I really want to do, probably won’t be til post-1.0 and will undoubtedly require re-arch…)
