We explore whether the Obama campaign's new Neighbor-to-Neighbor tool is something old or something new -- though we do know that it's borrowed and blue (Oh yeah, we went there...); an Iraq War veteran's anti-Obama clip is amassing some pretty stunning numbers, as is (to a lesser extent) an anti-Palin email; we spotlight the latest in do-it-yourself online media buys; and a good deal more.

I'm taking off tomorrow morning for London, England, where I'll be speaking along with techPresident blogger Michael Turk at "Politics Web 2.0," a two-day international conference hosted by the University of London, Royal Halloway. The conference features 120 papers organised into 41 panels, with more than 180 participants drawn from over 30 countries, and is probably a bit more academic than most of the events I tend to go to these days. My talk is titled, "The Revolution Will Be Networked: How Open Source Politics is Emerging in America." What do you think I should cover?
