Nice. On a related note, I attended EqualityCamp (SF) this past weekend and
wrote up some brief notes on my experience here:

It was particularly interesting to learn more about the informatic details
of how the Obama campaign self-organized and made use of "Voter Activation

organizers "on the front lines" of political change.
