I’m disappointed in govloop. I was hoping to find more information on the legal side of social media – complying with public record and open meeting laws. However, this site appears to be more federally oriented and businesses advertising their conferences. The business advertising is most annoying.

It has started in earnest. Two weeks notice of really short deadlines that depend on a multitude of people to have a small chance of meeting. Why is it that we basically close down government every September (now creeping into August) to deal with book balancing and bureaucracy? Why can’t we do this stuff yearRead… Read more »

Over the weekend my father-in-law decided to take advantage of the Cash for Clunkers program and went car shopping. Unfortunately the Dodge dealer he went to in his home town of Paris, Illinois informed him that they had put the program on hold.
