Very interesting... I wonder if there's a business here? Free access to the text for the public, with premium features for people/orgs willing to pay?
In a nutshell, Fourth Branch will act exactly as that: The fourth branch of government. The emphasis on publicizing legislation and providing government transparency has lead us to develop this. Unlike anything to date, we are going to utilize proven social networking practices and focus it on legislation and issues that require public input.
We are looking for any and all comments, criticism and feedback to help us develop quickly. Thanks!
