We’ve just launched a new website (mygrassrootsnetwork.com) that provides a “plug and play” social network service. You can create your very own social network and add a few lines to HTML to your existing website to let visitors and users join your network. We’re currently in Beta and targeted towards political campaigns, political groups and advocacy groups. Come by and check us out at http://www.mygrassrootsnetwork.com. All feedback. is appreciated.

My friend and I are almost three weeks into the launch of our Republican 2.0 site, which we hope will attract all Digg and Reddit users that have had enough of conservative, or even slightly right-leaning news sources being totally suppressed. Reddit in particular advocates the suppression of any perceived pro-Bush, or pro-GOP stories, so there is really no benefit for conservative or Republican users of these sites. You are welcome to contact me at 847-791-1065 if you had any questions, or were interested in profiling the site. It is the first conservative 2.0 project on the internet and we hope to generate a lot of buzz in the next couple months. Thanks for your time and I hope to hear from you.

One tool that campaigns should use is something that automatically requests friend additions based upon a number of categories and demographics, such as Friend Blaster Pro. I also would strongly suggest that campaigns not just focus on demos of age, sex, race, etc, but that they use lifstyle choices, such as genres of music, to add friends.
