The Sunlight Foundation has been experimenting with a<br /> series of tools that present information dynamically, using graphics,<br /> widgets and visualizations to display information, that harness the<br /> power of crowds by creating social networks around specific issues,<br /> elected officials or pieces of legislation, and powerful databases that<br /> allow users to connect the dots for themselves between private interests<br /> and public policy. Political information isn&#039;t just something that one<br /> hears on the evening news--it can be a social commodity that millennials<br /> can react to, critique, suggest improvements, collaborate and organize.<br /> <br /> Come see new tools and widgets that you can use, and join a discussion<br /> about potential paradigms for using news in new ways -- to engage rather<br /> than inform.</div>
