Thanks for responding to my initial post. I am not anonymous; my name is Iggy and I am an American living in Singapore. My comment was kinduva kneejerk reaction: almost all the time when I go to a blog that I think is going to be about technology, the techologist has to weigh in about his/her political view and ruin it for me. Yes, my other choice is to completely ignore all technology "pundits", and I am getting close to it. I took 3 days to chomp the bit on what you said, trying to figure it out. No, I don't directly get what the RNC says, but my daily source of news is from websites such as: http://www.rushlimbaugh.com http://www.newsmax.com/ http://www.nationalreview.com/ http://www.worldnetdaily.com/ http://www.frontpagemag.com/ http://www.debka.com/ http://www.chronwatch.com/ http://www.drudgereport.com http://www.cpa-iraq.org/ http://www.opinionjournal.com/ http://www.poorandstupid.com/chronicle.asp

I'm the token conservative :-) at the "teach-in", since I head up RightMarch.com and ConservativeAlerts.com. The idea here, as I understand it, is to lay out how leading online activist groups are using technology to enhance activism in ways it's never been done before, thus empowering people all over the political spectrum.
I realize that the left has gotten most of the press when it comes to online activism, but it's my observation that conservatives actually hold the upper hand in this area in terms of total messages sent to leaders, funds raised, etc.
I think both sides are making remarkable strides in this area, and it's an exciting time to be involved. Join in on the fun. :-)
