Many of you have been asking where Save the GOP is likely to go from here. We do not just want to be a blog, rather we would to really be a place for ACTIVISTS, who do something. As such, Save the GOP will be entering its second stage over the next few months.

We’re currently looking at what platform to move to which will give us more power than the normal blogging features of WordPress. Ironically one of the strongest contenders is CivicSpace, which is based on the old Dean for America technology. Dean may have lost the campaign but his people knew what they were doing when it came to technology.

Anyways, this is going to be a big project and would love help from folks who are familiar with PHP/MySql/Apache development. (We’re an opensource shop here, none of that Microsoft junk). Also if you do graphic design or CSS/xHTML stuff also drop me a line, because we are looking to do a total graphic redesign along with rolling out the new system.

My goal is for a preliminary launch sometime around September 1. Email me at mark@savethegop.com if you want to get involved.
