I will continue to follow specific bills, senators and reps via RSS in my Google Reader. I would like to see fuller integration of My OpenCongress features into my preferred social network Facebook. As you can see above, one of my Facebook friends Blaine added the OpenCongress Facebook app to his profile. That's awesome. I don't think many of my friends will sign up for My OpenCongress as a standalone social network. However, they will add the ABC/Facebook Politics app to their profile (go figure!). Sam, my feelings exactly. I will continue to follow specific bills, senators and reps via RSS in my Google Reader.

There is an internal battle between my desire to empower myself with the knowledge and information of "My OpenCongress" and my intense laziness to check yet another networking site. How much time do we consume in a day on blogs and networking sites? I hear you on the oversaturation of social networking sites!!!
