PdF essay contest
Personal Democracy Forum (June 23-24, NYC) is a key annual meeting in this country. You must go.
This year the theme is “Rebooting America,” and PdF has been soliciting essays from people like Clay Shirky, Yochai Benkler, Beth Noveck, Craig Newmark, danah boyd, Scott Heiferman, Tara Hunt, Josh Marshall, Howard Rheingold, Brad Templeton, Mike Turk, James Rucker, Morra Aarons, Patrick Ruffini, Lisa Stone, Joe Trippi (and me) about how to reinvent democracy in the U.S. using the internet.
Now PdF has emerged with the bright idea of asking everyone for their ideas - and they’re planning to hand out free passes to PdF for the best ideas that emerge.
All the details are here.
PdF is also inviting people to read the various submissions and help decide which ones are worth including, by voting them up or down. It’s not a pure Digg model, since PdF is going to make the final choices, but they’re going to be paying close attention to that feedback loop.
The time to write in is now: your submissions are due by May 1.
