You have probably noticed the addition of three buttons on the right hand side of Olyblog this morning. They are the first step in the creation of the Olympia Civic Network, an effort to create a local, non-commercial and citizen driven space on the internet. With Rick's launch of Olyblog late last summer, my interest in generating local online conversation has been rekindled, and hopefully, this effort will help create a higher profile for wired involvement.

Right now, at Better South Sound we're discussing what we have planned and what we're missing. Jump in and help us build this thing.
