Social networking site from a union (SEIU) presented today at Personal Democracy Conference. Impressive participation numbers -- 280K members, 40K ideas submitted, similar # for votes, comments, etc. And this great feature -- "help us tag the content."

Develop campaign tools | Greenpeace International

greenpeace, nptech, net2, socialcomputing, socialnetworks, socialsites, socialsoftware, globalwarming
