Meet Dean's new director of Internet and Information Services,
Impressive guy, here is his blog.

http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/jim/

SNIP.."Dr. James F. Moore is the newly-appointed Director of Internet & Information Services at Dean for America. He's also a Senior Fellow at Harvard Law School's Berkman Center for Internet & Society. He has his own blog, where he writes about expanding political participation through technology, among other topics.

"My story is that earlier this fall, at BloggerCon, I met Matt Gross' wife Mel. Mel suggested I come up to Burlington and visit the Dean campaign, perhaps get involved. I was kind of shy about doing so, but finally made the trip about three months ago. Sometimes the hardest thing to change is our mindset and our image of ourselves. Our passivity is reinforced in subtle as well as obvious ways. "I think I will hold back until later in the season." "My contribution doesn't matter." "I'm shy about commitment."

I thought I was involved before I came up here. But now I realize I was more spectator than activist.
...."

4. Good pick up.
Do we really needed it? Our guys are already great. Maybe it's getting to be too much.

I want better ads.
