CommunityCOUNTS is a labor of love and the product of my “free-time” over the past couple of years. It started as an attempt to help nudge political discourse away from soundbites and towards substance. In its current form it helps spark, collect, rank and compel discussion around an assortment of web-content by leveraging a community’s voice. It can be used to run simple contests or something resembling a self-organizing petition/Q&A.
