Have You Been Following the Canadian Election?

I must confess that I have not really been following along this election. I've been interested and engaged in every other election for the past 5 years - municipal, provincial and federal - but this time, not so much. And it's probably mostly because I spend too much time online, reading blogs, learning about social software, keeping in touch with people, and NOT reading election coverage.

So I was happy to learn (with a week to go) about Confeederation, an aggregator site built by Social Signal, pulling in the blog posts from all the blogging candidates from all the parties. Nice work, Rob and Alex... it's an awesome idea.

So I'm stoked... now I can inform myself and still not stray too far from my iBook! :)

About this Site

A hodge-podge of random thoughts, musings, and links – sometimes about social change, sometimes about technology and the web, sometimes about yoga, and occasionally about knitting. Sometimes (because I'm a Canadian girl with deep roots in the British Isles) I even write about the weather.

I'm a yoga teacher, founder of Yoga for Geeks, and a freelance web writer, strategist, and project manager. I also help to co-create the amazing Web of Change Conference, every September in beautiful British Columbia.
