participatory politicians

I read about two new wikis today, with one a great deal more exciting than the other.

Steve Rubel had a link this morning to the new WikiBios. I can't help but think it will be a collection of the life stories of the most boring people out there.

But Campaign Wikia? Yeah, this I can get into. Read Jimmy Wales' call to arms to see for yourself.

"Together, we will start to work on educating and engaging the political campaigns about how to stop being broadcast politicians, and how to start being community and participatory politicians."

I've signed up. Go ahead and sign up too.

Thanks to Boing Boing for the link.
