This an exceptional use of the web to open up government to the people. I don’t think it will make passing a budget any easier, but it certainly gives people a voice. Kudos to these state lawmakers for their forward and innovative thinking.

I had checked this out the other day and wasn’t really that impressed. It just seems like a vent site. I would be curious if anything actually productive derives from it. It isn’t like any discussion takes place with their setup.
Now, if it was done where legislators would comment and give feedback on ideas presented, that would be a different thing.
