First, an apology is in order to language purists. "Politology" is actually a word simply meaning the study of policy - other countries use the word to mean the same thing that we mean by "political science".
But this weblog is specifically about both politics and technology, including (but not limited to) the intersection between the two subjects. Politics is where some of the most exciting web development is happening, and we only scratched the surface with the Dean campaign. This site will very much be about politics and technology in the United States. The word fits.
I'll be your host, and we'll also have regular and semi-regular guest authors to weigh in on subjects they care about.
In addition, we'll be using this site specifically to launch new political technology media. Whether it is animations, interactive web applications, graphics, offline publications, or even games, it's likely to pop up on these pages at one time or another.
If you are a skilled writer that is passionate about politics and also experienced in a technology field such as graphic design, information architecture, programming, database design, or flash development, please enquire within. The aim for this site is to become a full-on political media group, not just a blog.
