We recently had the pleasure of making a screencast for OpenCongress.org, an open source, collaborative website that helps citizens keep track of everything happening in Congress. We think it’s pretty awesome. Check them out!
p.s. for all the video geeks, the video is overlapping the sidebar- i wanted to keep it big so you could see all the detail…enjoy!

Excellent work as usual. I love the Open Congress site, but this definitely showed features I wasn’t aware of, like the tools for pushing info out from the site. I’ll definitely be using Open Congress after the elections – trying as hard as possible to hold Washington D.C. accountable.
Holy cow! Open Congress looks incredible. Great screencast – I’m going to go set up an account.
Very cool…..just wondering you seem to be putting a lot more stuff up on your “blog” then at the main page, Just curious why that is…..Regardless, I am glad you guys are back making good quality stuff!
This is great! I’m a bit ashamed to admit that I had never heard of Open Congress before seeing this. Definitely bookmarked the site and will be using it.
Well done. I was looking for the bailout bills on the government site when they were in play. This will make it easy to find bills I’m interested in.
And, the quicktime plays on my iTouch.
