It works as a kind of Wiki, for collaborative content in open vocabulary, executable English (and other languages). English text is normally something for a person to read, but it cannot be used as a program that you can run on a computer. On the other hand, executable English is something that a person can read, and that you can also run on a computer. Shared use of the system is *free*. Just point a browser to www.reengineeringllc.com . Since the executable knowledge is in English, Google indexes and retrieves it, acting as a kind of registry. You can use your browsers to cooperatively write programs in English, run them, and get English explanations of the results. There’s something new on the Web — social media that computes.

Legistalker provides real time tracking of legislators' activities on social web sites, in the news, and on the Capitol floor in real time. In the Apps for America Contest, the Legistalker application was awarded second place. Check out: http://www.legistalker.org. Thought I’d share one more useful tool to consider: LegiStalker.

That's the nature of the 24-hour news cycle. News, videos, and weblog posts are being created constantly. So I'm always finding new, interesting content to share with others. Then there's the whole online community management activities I do. It's a daunting task, but that's 21st Century politics. I’m the “no sleep” guy. That’s the nature of the 24-hour news cycle.
