CA Congressional Candidate Raising Funds to Attend PDF Conference

Scott Chacon, a 2006 Congressional candidate from CA, has actually launched a fundraising effort to help him get to the PDF Conference! He's also taking advantage of lots of great community-building technologies on his site which features a blog, podcasts and a forum. He's even got a phone comment line. I guess he's PDF Conference worthy, eh?

Wow, thanks everyone

I didn't see this post until now, but I would like to thank everyone for the kind words, and Kate for the invitation. Thanks to the generosity of the PDF people, I will definitely be attending now. I'll see you all in New York, and if anyone is interested in meeting me while I'm there, please let me know. I would be more than happy to talk about the campaign and everything I'm working on. You can email me at scott (at) chaconforcongress.com.

Thanks again, everyone.

Chacon has made the leap

Of all the upstart web-based campaigns, I don't think I've seen one that's taken such a leap of faith. Quite impressive. Let's hope he makes it to the conference. I'd be interested in hearing the story of how he got to where he is.
