Want everyone's ideas about what we should be doing. Such as access to information that's hidden in plain view. e.g. financial disclosures on paper. Have to wade through 535 .pdfs. Are digitizing these to make them searchable. can't get in a unified way contracts and other layouts. that will be up in a month too. What other kinds of content would people like to have at their fingertips? Want help in building the apis for mashing things up. Sunlight labs is working on tools tohelp bloggers and CJs do what they do. The pop-up politician, for example. If yoiu mention a representative, mouseover and a pic of the person pops up, and links out to various databases are there. make stuff available where people are looking rather than forcing the reader to look everywhere.

Lots of people can contribute. Actual editing, facts into stories... these people need different tools. One tool is collaboriateive editing. subethaedit, moonedit... in real time. color coding the personal edits and differences. Other thing... video aggregation... process by which video streams come together.. segment them into pieces to be aggregated into larger story. Metavid(?). not just the resources themselves, but the integration of them. Also, investigative journalism... if I want to spend two months to research a topic, I also need to pay the rent.
