Well, this is a bit awkward. One of the projects I've been working on (longer than I should have been, to be sure), was a community site oriented towards all of Virginia's Democrats. The project started back in August - ack, has it really been that long? - and after working through a number of different community software packages, I'd settled on one and had been hoping to launch it soon. And where would it be? Right here, at BlueCommonwealth.org. An excellent name, I think.
And a couple other people thought so, too. Last night, Josh Chernila (of the soon to be closed Raising Kaine) announced BlueCommonwealth.com, essentially as the continuation of Raising Kaine. Serves me right for both being a little slow on the development, and for not buying the .com of the name earlier this year. Unfortunately, it didn't serve those who have been working with me on this right at all. My fault, and my apologies. And I wish Josh & crew the best of luck.
Not entirely sure how I'll be moving forward with the (almost ready) BlueCommonwealth project, from a domain/branding standpoint, but it may well turn out that there will be two BlueCommonwealths (the irony of which is . . . well, it just is.). Any ideas are welcome and appreciated.
