great idea. should be cross referenced against tax reciepts and surplus/deficit within the state treasury. also might be fun to track congressional priorities as well. would give context to the knee jerk raise taxes/don’t raise taxes argument.

Hm. VERY cool. I’m reminded of Buckminster Fuller’s “I seem to be a verb,” quote, for some odd reason… and then there’s the interesting ‘He McGuyvered a fix,’ descriptive…

Perhaps the inception of such innovations on blogs might one day be called ‘Javising…?’

The infrastructure project is the best idea I’ve heard all week.

Yeah, I was being spell-check-stupid. Without thinking, when it dinged me for voila — which, honest, is what I typed first — I hit the control-click and put in the musical instrument. This time it’s right, with accent, even. Thanks.

My browser doesn’t spell check French either, but unless this post is referencing orchestral stringed instruments I think “voila!” is what you’re looking for.

More importantly, this was a great idea and thanks for prodding me to think more about how we (formerly known as the audience/consumers) can participate more directly with media.
