Blue Security Reborn As Social Action Enabler

griswaldo writes "Wired News writes about the re-birth of the ill-fated Blue Security as a social action company. According to the article, founders of the former anti-spam company that made headlines after incurring the wrath of a Russian spam king have set up a company called Collactive that provides tools to organize grassroots action on political and social web sites. The article mentions a global warming initiative called WorldCoolers and, for the Slashdot YRO crowd, the Privacy Alert Network that kicked off by letting people comment on Homeland Security's latest crazy idea."

Their plans to take so-called Web 2.0 sites and make them easy to use for normal people sound like a good idea. If sites like Digg claim to be aimed at a broad audience and not only at techies, why is it that they are still dominated by Slashdot wannabes?

Maybe this will bring user-generated sites to everyday folk. I can already envision my grandma telling me how many stories she Dugg, and all without even leaving her bridge game!
