Personal Democracy Forum 2009 Round-up w/Links to 11 Live-blogs

What’s at the intersection of politics and technology? More than a thousand people at 60th and Broadway on June 29 and 30th, aka Personal Democracy Forum 2009.

I attended Day 2 of PdF and suggest that first, before anything else, you check out the new IT Dashboard that lets you see how your taxpayer dollars are being spent by the federal government in a way you’ve never seen before (the system is said to have crashed just an hour after it was unveiled yesterday but it’s fine right now).

Then, browse the links and live-blogged sessions from yesterday (including Twitter streams during each session):

Bonus: As I wrote Pete and Joe, I was there blogging for my site, TMV and BlogHer.com and I’m proud to tell you that that look of recognition came over folks when they saw “The Moderate Voice” on my press pass tag.
