Don't get mad, get political
13 July 2003 
" The MIT folks are building a system which will collate all publicly available information about all public officials in the US.
We could do the same for the UK. Imagine a site that would automatically collate information about MPs' financial interests, voting behaviour, Commons attendance, speeches, publications, campaign literature, friends, attentiveness to constituents etc and make it available on the web? Later we could extend it to cover corporate bosses and the quangocracy. "
Sounds a pretty bloody boring site. You still need journalists and bloggers to sift through that stuff to give it, life.
