DeanSpace to coordinate online campaign efforts: Howard Dean's presidential campaign has already distinguished itself by its savvy embrace of the Internet and weblogs (or "chatrooms" as I heard one uncomfortable political pundit refer to them on NPR a few weeks back) and the wellspring of enthusiasm coming from the grassroots. It's not surprising when you consider that... (People Power)
