Interesting Stuff #1

We surf, looking for interesting stuff, and are overwhelmed, frequently missing some. Those with less time, miss more.

Much of the blogosphere is reactive, to current events, each other, or to the themes stressed by the MSM. What are often missed are the many interesting subjects and discussions that are off the daily blogoboviate meter but which are important in themselves or for what they (may) portend.

So, from time to time I will post Interesting Stuff collections. These will be items not widely distributed elsewhere. I am including the URL's, for future reference, as some go offline after a few days. Some sites may require free registration.

I won’t be emailing future issues, so you’ll have to check out Democracy-Project.com from time to time.

This is an experiment, so I very much would appreciate feedback.
