Online Political Funding Site
PayDemocracy.com

New way to influence politicians online. is an interesting new way for easy-forming groups to pool money together to support political candidates & advance causes. Its kind of like forming an instant PAC.

MoveOn is similar however PayDemocracy is non-partisan and more of a platform that lets the user be the activist. By (timster). [Metapop]

John Mellencamp
Good interview with John Mellencamp. The link and lyrics to the MP3 for his song "To Washington" was posted on Mediaburn here.

Ain't that America?. Denounced as un-American after he blasted Bush on his 21st album, John Mellencamp talks about the rise of Fox News, pay-for-play, what's wrong with the Rolling Stones and why most Republicans aren't rich enough to be Republicans. [Salon.com]

From the 101-365 weblog
27 years ago,

or was it just five, I wrote a Wiki in Frontier. XML had just been invented, and I wanted to play with it, so I tried cooking it into the Wiki. (RSS was not yet even an eye twinkle.) I asked some questions on the Frontier mailing list.

Chuck Shotton, the Bringer of Internet to Macintosh, answered my (very basic) questions. I had been thinking about using alternate editors for webpages, and did not mean to create a need for syndication, but hey.

Finally, RSS and weblogs and all that stuff made web writing easy, so I quit working on Wacky (the Wiki.) It doesn't work in XML at all any more, because the state of the art tool when I quit working on it has depreciated, and I no longer support it. Which brings us to the current RSS vs Echo issue.

Echo is being pushed as a replacemant for RSS. But I worry that Echo may already be owned by some big company, or at least tied up in their litigatory legalities. Listen Echo guys, RSS (mostly works. I'm not sure that I want IBM or whoever deciding how my content is represented, anyway. [101-365]

A picture named tourenne.jpgRaumpatrouille, the Movie. On the Trailer website are a lot of new MP3s to listen to. Dialogues are German, but the music is here to stay; check out "Title 31 - Invasion"(7.1MB, MP3). For everyone. But the spaceship still looks funny. They really should have used my version of the Orion VIII. Thanks, Marc. I have to link your BASIS 104 now... [The Cartoonist]
