"Experimental" people powered political debates

Just wondering if anyone would like to try out a small web project I've created. It's a kind of "experimental" people powered political debates/discussion. On my web site, http://www.buzztopix.com/ people can hookup with each other in real time, and then using Skype (a "web telephone" thing that EBay does), they start talking with each other on conference calls.

I'm actually trying to get some bloggers from either side of the political spectrum to put up a little widget I've created on their blogs that does the same thing... I figure that when visitors to these blogs get hooked up with each other and enter into conference calls it will result in some particularly interesting debates around subjects that both sides are equally passionate about. I asked Liza if she was interested and she suggested I post a note to her users about it.

If you want to give it a spin just go to http://www.buzztopix.com/
You don't have to sign up, or register, all you have to do is click on the "Joinups" you see in the center of the screen and you will get hooked up with other people who also want to start a conference call.

You can check out this little video I made demonstrating how this thing works.

BTW, If you haven't heard of Skype yet, it is the "web telephone" or VoIP thing that EBay bought (for some 4$ billion dollars!). You can get Skype for free at http://www.skype.com/
They offer absolutely free computer to telephone calls anywhere in the US and Canada until end of year (so if you are paying money for long distance, you might want to try this). Of course computer to computer calls are always free.

Thanks for your time,
Louis-Philip
