There's a spiffy new tool out there called unfluence whose sole purpose is to show you who's been giving money to which canidates. It's focused on state candidates too, an area that usually doesn't have much light shined on it. Unsurprisingly, real estate money plays almost as large a part in campaign financing as […]

Welcome to the upgraded website! We're now running off of the fine folks at SliceHost (who, by-the-by, rock) on a fresh upgrade of WordPress 2.1.3. All of the plugins are up-to-date, but please let us know if something seems horrendously broken. While it took all of 30 seconds for the updated DNS entries to […]

Taking an honest look at your finances and spending habits is a tricky business. But we realized it must be done.
