Redefining Democratic Fundraising
(washingtonpost.com)
07/23/2004 11:23 PM

washingtonpost.com - John F. Kerry has created the most effective fundraising machine in Democratic Party history by tapping disparate interests -- trial lawyers, financial services executives, social liberals, teachers, Hollywood figures and others -- united by their antipathy to President Bush.

washingtonpost.com - For most politicians, fundraising is a dreaded chore. But until recently, Rep. John T. Doolittle of California and other members of the House Republican leadership had adopted a painless solution: fundraising events in luxury sports boxes leased largely with the money of Indian gaming tribes, where supporters snacked on catered fare in plush surroundings as they watched the Wizards, Caps, Redskins or Orioles.

Redefining Privacy In An Age When All Is
Known And Searchable
05/04/2004 03:09 PM
While lots of people are complaining about this or that "privacy" question (see the overhyped discussion about Gmail and privacy), some are pointing out that people are focusing in on minor issues and i gnoring the very big questions concerning privacy. There's no doubt that the rise of big databases and better searching techniques means that information is being collected and connected like never before. However, instead of just focusing on whether or not Google should place contextual ads in our email, shouldn't we take a step back and look at the bigger questions about who has control over your information? The article linked above tries to re-frame the debate, saying that we first need to have that discussion, and set up a framework which will allow people to better deal with the more specific minor issues like ads in our emails.

Redefining "Quick Search" - IE Plug-in
for Searching Library Catalogs!
12/03/2003 01:51 AM

It's all in the WebPaths, baby...

"From blogdex to Veen to del.icio.us to this wonderful search plug-in for IE – mahvelous!" [jenett.radio]

Give me a moment to think of a word to write other than "WOW!"

Click on the last link in Joe's post if you are a Windows + Internet Explorer user and you like searching library catalogs. While there are several pre-configured search engines available at the site, the Searchy plug-in turns out to be another pipeline into online catalogs that sits completely outside the library world. Like LibraryLookup, anyone can configure the plug-in to work with any OPAC that allows the appropriate type of search strings, and the site even provides a Plug-in Generator.

For example, I played around with SWAN's keyword search and created a registry plug-in that allows me to type searches directly into the address bar in IE. After installing it, I can now type "sk celtic music" and the results of the search in SWAN load in the browser window. In fact, I just tested "sk pirates of the caribbean" and after a few clicks I'm now the 47th hold for the DVD!

I can also configure similar searches for title, author, subject, etc. ("st" for title, "sa" for author, "ss" for subject). I think the keyword plug-in should be visible to you on the Searchy page if you scroll down to "SWAN" - give it a whirl! The installation instructions really are as simple as they sound. (Do note that this installs into the Windows registry, though, so play at your own risk.)

SWAN runs Innovative Interfaces software, so I know III catalogs will work with this. We'll have to test others. I'm no Windows expert (not even close), but theoretically a library should be able to make plug-ins pre-configured for its catalog available from its own web site, right?

Very cool!

Can You Patent Online Fundraising?


Can You Patent Online Fundraising? 03/24/2005 08:31 PM
Plenty of people have started to realize that, instead of encouraging innovation, many are using the patent system as a sort of legalized shakedown. Software patents are bad, but business model patents are downright scary. The folks over at the EFF point to one pending patent that tries to patent the process of fund raising online: "A method for conducting a fundraising campaign by an organization or person over a wide-area network, comprising the steps of: hosting a website including a plurality of linked web pages, the website providing information about the fundraising campaign and soliciting potential donors to make a charitable contribution to the fundraising campaign; registering on the website; contacting third parties via email messages soliciting charitable donations; and providing one or more reports, on the website, including information on the status of the fundraising campaign." Where's that guy with the patent on stupid patents?

DropCash: instant fundraising sites


DropCash: instant fundraising sites 08/22/2004 07:29 AM
Cory Doctorow: DropCash is a new service from Jason Kottke and Andre Torrez, two of my favorite Web-dudes. DropCash has the ingenious simplicity of all of Torrez's projects: sign up, enter your TypeKey identity and a fundraising target and click "create" and hey-presto, you've got a fundraising site where anyone with PayPal and TypeKey can contribute -- and watch the progress-bar move toward your money goal. Boogah notes that you could use this to coordinate buying someone a birthday gift, but it'd also be great for Back to Iraq-like stunts, where a blogger raises some bread to go do something and chronicle it on her site.

Dean fundraising is on fire this evening 02/10/2004 02:48 AM
Too little, too late? I hope not. Dean For America, in a sharply focused campaign to win Wisconsin, is enjoying what will likely end up being its single biggest fundraising day. As of 7pm EST, they have raised $537,643 from 7,432 contributors (an average contribution of $72). Jim Moore's following it. And Peter has actually contributed to it. Is Dean dead? Maybe, but let's hope not. PS: I'm watching CNN and CNBC and so far no mention of this. You would think after all of the major news networks fucked up so badly in their coverage of Dean, they'd do...

The SCO Group Inc. said Thursday that Microsoft Corp. was not involved in raising venture capital funding for the company, dismissing claims that a leaked e-mail demonstrated that Microsoft had helped raise tens of millions of dollars for SCO. An e-mail from an outside consultant to SCO apparently involved in brokering deals for the company was posted to the Open Source Initiative Web site Wednesday. The consultant in the e-mail suggests that Microsoft "brought in $86 million" for SCO and that between US$16 million and $20 million is underway.
