DNC in Denver next week

Posted August 22nd, 2008 by Corey deVos in ReallyRealPolitik

Will anybody be there?  It would be interesting to have some folks taking photos and blogging from the convention next week, whether you are going to the convention itself, or just hanging out with the hippies and anarchists on the street.

Anyone?

DNC+ILP?, a Huffington reference

Posted August 23rd, 2008 by Kerry Dugan

For anyone in the IL loop who will attend the convention, you might want to check out the "HuffPost Oasis" there on site. The Huffington Post's re-working of their 'Living' section seems to be a venue friendly, and maybe conducive, to ILPs.

From their article today:

"Living is now more focused on all the ways we can take care of ourselves and lead more balanced, centered lives while at the same time making a difference in the world.

We'll be bringing you the best news and opinion on how to live life well -- encompassing the inner life, the balanced life, and the giving life.

So along with aggregating the latest tips and articles on ways to improve the quality of our life, we are also bringing on board a host of new contributors, each with a unique perspective on the subjects you've told us you are most interested in, including health, relationships, diet and exercise, spiritual awareness, philanthropy, meditation -- and generally finding more meaning in our lives. We'd love to see virtual communities developing around these areas -- with ongoing conversations between contributors and users, and amongst the users themselves.

To celebrate this relaunch, the Living section is sponsoring the HuffPost Oasis during the Democratic National Convention in Denver." [bold; mine]

I can imagine that renewed venue (their Living section) bringing some broad exposure to the fruits of this, the IL community.
