Does New England need a virtual meeting place for discussion and action on politics, culture, environment and living? Could the Massachusetts governor's race be a catalyst to establish one? An idea session. More info on: [New England] Convener: Christopher Lydon, Open Source Radio

Chris: a promising concept; many ideas for "commons" have been tried out on the Internet, some of which you graciously mentioned in your Commonwealth piece. Suppose the Commons were not a particular website, but a code by which Internet communities convened. --Jon Garfunkel 21:57, 26 June 2006 (EDT)
