  1. Your Government a finalist in Society for News Design's multimedia contest (along w/NYT's Represent and others). http://is.gd/2JKdo
  2. Also added list of past meetings for each committee, with audio links. Example: http://gov.oregonlive.com/c...
  3. Added full list of committee meetings on a bill to each bill page, with links to audio files from most meetings. Example: http://is.gd/15C1C
  4. Pro tip: If you know the prefix/num. of a bill, append it to the home URL and you'll go right to the page: http://gov.oregonlive.com/H...
  5. Nice links to site in post by @bikeportland about driving/cell phone bill (HB2377): http://bit.ly/9Rcxq http://gov.oregonlive.com/H...
  6. Nice post about the site by our favorite political writer (and David Byrne's favorite cycling writer) Jeff Mapes http://is.gd/OTUn
  7. Added to each bill's page a link to the Lege's page of staff measure summaries and revenue impact statements for that bill (if they exist).
  8. Pushed a workaround for a glitch where Tigard addresses were "invalid." Seems they geocode correctly as "Portland" addresses. Sorry, Tigard!
  9. @abrahamhyatt Tnx! We'll do some limited archive linking (big job!) Goal is to start getting past sessions up soon. Maybe as far back as '99
  10. @SuziSteffen We believe it's approximately 63% more awesome!
  11. Your Government is now live http://gov.oregonlive.com/
