Why
SpeakOut?
Has
this ever happened to you? You're reading the paper, watching
or listening to the news, and you come across a story about
someone who's doing something you're not too crazy about.
Suddenly, that usually passive activist in you jumps up
and says, "Man, this is wrong. I've got to talk to
someone about this!"
Unfortunately,
that's usually as far as it gets because (a) it's virtually
impossible to get through to that someone who might be able
to do something for you. And (b) what if you did? Would
they really care about your opinion?
Well,
(true story, we swear) SpeakOut.com was started by a guy,
Ron Howard, who wanted to voice his opinion but didn't know
exactly who to talk to. A guy just like you and me and millions
of other Americans who have become disconnected from their
government and leaders. Only this guy had an idea about
how to do something about it.
Probably
unlike you and me, Ron had racked up serious experience
building new technology companies. He saw the Internet as
the perfect vehicle for reconnecting people with their leaders.
So he set up shop in the center of it all — Washington,
DC. And he created SpeakOut.com.
Starting
now, SpeakOut.com is the place to go to make a difference.
To not only learn about issues, but react to them. In addition
to being a fun and informative destination Web site, SpeakOut.com
is an online opinion research company that allows you to
tell it like it is. We take the traditional market research
focus group and political polls and put them online while
inviting you to tell politicians, political parties, corporations,
marketers and special interest groups how you feel and why.
Make your voice heard loud and clear with SpeakOut.com's
new interactive polls.
You
and countless other Americans can now participate in online
polls, send messages to elected officials, and sign petitions
to help those in need. This and much more is SpeakOut.com.
SpeakOut. Be Heard. SpeakOut.com
