There’s huge innovation going on in the DRAFT LESSIG movement: for instance, check out this Facebook video pledge.

Status Update, 2/21: The DRAFT LESSIG Challenge

February 21st, 2008

Great stats, as the momentum in the DRAFT LESSIG Challenge continues to build:

- the ActBlue contributions are up to 430+ and $35,000+ (more than the other two candidates combined);

- the Facebook group is screaming toward 4,000 members;

- a few hundred more have pledged their cash and volunteer support in the event of a Lessig run (sorry to those whose emails to <info@draftlessig.org> have gone unanswered; keep ‘em coming; we’re catching up to the backlog!!!).  Many people are saying they’ll give at all levels: $10, $500, $2300 in emails today; and,

- another hundred have joined the new, doubled-down, super-duper Lessig Facebook group to commit to get 10 friends to contribute, to contribute themselves, to recruit new members, and to volunteer time. Join us there!

Keep those emails and invites going out. We will meet the DRAFT LESSIG Challenge of 1,000 in a week, but keeping pushing forward to get there. Thanks, all.

If you didn’t see it, a great & extensive interview with our would-be candidate at Ars Technica about his possible two-pronged campaign.

2000+ Members, and some President’s Day chatter

Today in Good Ideas: another pledge of a contribution.

What would Speier v. Lessig look like? OpenLeft speculation.

… and oh, yeah, the DRAFT LESSIG Facebook group just passed 2000 members.
