Say Hello To K Street Cafe

September 22, 2008 | 11:34 PM

Tech Daily Dose welcomes the launch of another inside the Beltway blog -- K Street Café, a Web site sponsored by the public affairs firm Adfero Group where experts from a variety of backgrounds share novel ways technology, the Internet and social media are being used to shape public policies.

"As new media tactics are introduced, K Street Café will examine how advocacy organizations are continually changing the way they execute public affairs campaigns," Adfero's Jeff Mascott said in an e-mail. "Contributors to the blog will highlight and analyze the shift from one-directional communications to multi-layered conversations as the method of choice for individuals engaged in issue advocacy."

Contributors include Alan Rosenblatt of the Center for American Progress Action Fund; ePolitics.com's Colin Delany; Verizon's John "CZ" Czwartacki; John Wonderlich of the Sunlight Foundation; the Congressional Management Foundation's Kathy Goldschmidt; the Heritage Foundation's Rob Bluey and others.
