[edit] Tim Erickson
I am in charge of Issues Forum development for E-Democracy.Org. I've been a volunteer with E-Democracy.Org for about 7 years, during which time I've:
- Coordinated the 2006 E-Democracy.Org E-Debate for US Senate
- Was Forum Manager of the St. Paul Issues Forum for 4 years
- Coordinated the launch of the Brighton & Hove and Newham Issues Forum, in the UK.
- Coordinated the launch of the Roseville Issues Forum, and served as temporary forum manager for the first 9 months.
I've been involved in facilitating online public policy discussion since 1998, when I founded http://politalk.com (I recently sold the domain name). I'm in the process of launching a personal blog at http://politalk.org
Other activities:
