Join me in NYC for a 10Questions meetup party

The 10questions.com submission period is coming to an end in 5 more days. Thanks to may computer woes, I've been remiss at following up on this fantastic opportunity to ask the hard questions to the candidates; but not any more.

I am calling on all the NYC-based sponsors of 10Questions.com to come spend Sunday afternoon with me at Rapture Cafe in the East Village. I'll be there from 3:00pm to 6:00pm downing coffees and making video clips of everybody who wants to submit a clip to 10questions.

What does that mean? If you don't have a digital camera with video capabilities, a computer with WiFi or both, just bring just yourself and the questions you would like to submit. We have the cameras, we have the computers. Rapture Cafe has the coffee, beer and WiFi.

Place : Rapture Cafe - Avenue A between 13th & 12th Streets
Time : 3pm - 6pm

So take this post to starting thinking out loud what you'd like to ask the presidential candidates.

10 Questions


10 Questions

The 10Questions Presidential Forum is divided into two rounds. During the first round, which will run from October 17 to November 14, anyone with access to YouTube, MySpace Yahoo Video, AOL Video, Blip.tv, or TeacherTube. can submit a video question. To enter, upload your video question to one of these sites and tag it "10questions." Be sure to give it a descriptive title so others can find it. And if you want, add additional tags that describe it further.

During round one, videos bearing the tag "10questions" will be collected on the main page where anyone can vote for or against them. At the close of round one, there will be an audit of the top vote-getters, after which the top ten videos will be presented to the candidates.

During round two, which will begin November 17 and end December 31, the candidates will be asked to post their replies to the top ten questions, and you get to vote on their replies. The candidates will have until December 15 to post their answers; you'll have until December 31 to vote on them. At the end of this round, we will audit the ratings and announce the final results.

You can submit as many videos as you want, at whatever length you prefer, though we recommend keeping your questions brief since that will probably improve their chances of being viewed, and voted upon, by more people. Also, you can vote on as many videos as you like, but you can vote only once for each video.

Video entries should be questions for all the 2008 American Presidential candidates as a group, and suitable for a general audience. We reserve the right to reject videos if they are obscene or inappropriate. If you want to learn more about 10Questions, check out our FAQ.

Words to live by

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.


— - H. P. Lovecraft
