Dear Denver is trying to spark some municipal microblogging. From their post:
We hope this blog will become a forum where -- as in the case of Ruby Hill/Xcel -- residents, elected officials and other interested parties such as lobbyists and corporations can publish information and opinion, and check in periodically for updates.
One commenter said that this blog "democratized" information regarding Ruby Hill/Xcel. We'd like to see more of that. Everyone reading this blog has the opportunity to post a diary entry. When you sign in, click "New Diary" in the menu at the upper right, and post your own items -- announce a neighborhood meeting, tell your zoning horror story, whatever.
Xcel and city officials are welcome to post rebuttals and whatnot, although pseudonymous participation is advised for everyone. The point of this blog is not to shout down you or anyone else. It's to give more people a chance to speak -- sometimes at length -- about city issues.

Mark Udall is doing well in fundraising for his run for U.S. Senator, according to The Denver Post. From the article:
Colorado Democratic Rep. Mark Udall said today that he raised more than $1.1 million in the past three months for his 2008 U.S. Senate campaign, a race that is expected to be one of fiercest in the country. Udall, a congressman representing Colorado's 2nd District, now has almost $2.5 million in the bank, campaign manager Mike Melanson said in a statement. The campaign released the totals in advance of Sunday's Federal Election Commission reporting deadline...
Udall is a member of one of the West's best-known political families. His father, Morris, represented Arizona for three decades in the House; his uncle, Stewart, was a three-term Arizona congressman and became interior secretary in 1961. Mark Udall's cousin, Tom Udall, is a Democratic congressman from New Mexico.
