dKosopedia: The Open Source Political Encyclopedia
Guys, you've got to check this out! Kos has come up with yet another great idea: a wiki (open source) encyclopedia for politics nerds like us.

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2004/5/29/1577/24217

http://www.dkosopedia.com

Read more about it. It's an open source encyclopedia so you can edit it, add an entry and generally make it great. Please check it out.

Brilliant idea!

2. Wow
That works! Even an old Luddite Apple guy, like me, can use and abuse that political encyclopedia! The OED of the DLC?

3. I'll kick it for you too.
Although, at this time of night it will probably still be there in the morning anyway.

4. CooperativeResearch.org has something similar
But I think you have to sign up to do the editing. Wiki is a really good idea, www.wikipedia.org is an amazing site.

7. Support the DKos 8 Demcratic canddiates.
The Daily Kos will be choosing 8 Democrats running for Congress to support.

The first is Richard Morrison, who is running for Tom Delay's (R-TX) seat.
