| Started last year by a group of folks over at the largest lefty blog on the Tubes of the Internet, DailyKos, you can read more about YKos here.
Several of Michigan's bloggers will be serving as featured speakers, panel moderators, and be given as examples of how to succeed in netroots activism. All of us will be learning through participating, and are sure to return even more rich in tools, tricks, and tips of the trade designed to further grow and strengthen progressive ideals.
Some of us will come back and be ready to jump into campaign work, guiding and advising candidates and issue campaigns into victory.
Others will return with their Rolodexes bursting at the seams, poised to unite our great state with some of the most important work that's being done in progressive policy across the country.
A few will arrive and announce their candidacy for office, ready to run as a netroots-friendly candidate just like our own Governor.
More still will come back, revved up and ready to bring you even better news and coverage of events that matter to you and the rest of Michigan.
All of us will return with a heightened sense of optimism and enthusiasm that can only go on to achieve great things for our great state.
We might be taking off for Chicago, but the knowledge, experience and opportunities that we'll bring back to Michigan will be seen and talked about in Michigan for years to come. |
