Cam Barrett (former Clark IT lead) hired by Kerry campaign

Pioneering blogger and community software guy Cam Barret of CamWorld, late of the Clark campaign, has been hired by the Kerry campaign. While he was at the Clark campaign, he and his team developed the "Bloop" community modification to Scoop, the software that runs this site.

Good. Cam's a pro, and I think he'll bring the Kerry online community up to speed very quickly. We've now learned lessons from the Dean and Clark campaigns about what works and what doesn't, and the strengths and limitations of online activism.

I look forward to seeing what Cam and his team come up with.
