Have you seen change.gov yet?
 
http://change.gov

(Please don't debate the content, I'm only pointing out the concept of the site)

I like this. If you haven't seen the site yet it's worth a look. I think it's a great idea. A place where we can see what the administration is planning and how they plan on doing it.

I think it should be mandatory that each senator, congressman and cabinet member have one as well. One place where we can see what thy are working on, planning on, and their position on all of the issues. Transparency = good. It's a step in the right direction.

Today they rolled out a new feature to ask questions. http://change.gov/newsroom/entry/open_for_questions/

With so many Americans involved in the political process for the first time, there's a great deal of interest in what's happening inside the Transition right now -- and what happens next.

The Change.gov community has jumped into a true two-way dialogue with our Transition team members. So far, we've asked you questions about major issues in our discussion forums, and you've flooded this site with your comments.

Two minds. But you said no debate, so I'll honor that.

And I agree, it's a great thing they're being this open. I just hope what they actually do matches what they say they'll do. Not that I agree with what they're doing, but it will be nice if they're at least honest about it. It makes the actual conversation so much better.
