Party Conventions are insider affairs and the coverage is usually a bore. Need we say it again? The MSM don't cover campaigns - they cover candidates. All those organizers and voters who make campaigns hum or splutter -- they barely get a word in. Independent media want to do better, but it’s typically a struggle for them to gain access – and to get heard above the din.

Collaborative media to the rescue!!! If you liked how Twitter broke NBC’s lock on the Olympics, you’ll love how the independent media working together are figuring out how to increase access and broaden the conversation at and beyond the DNC.

On Sunday, August 24 at 3pm Pacific, (4 pm Mountain, 6pm Eastern), Van Jones, Jim Hightower, Andre Banks and a whole roster of real-life change-makers will be center stage at “Live From Main Street Colorado” at the Big Tent – a fully-wired facility for bloggers and their buddies next to the Pepsi Center and the DNC.

The topic is “So You Say You Want Change: Exploring the Conflicts and Opportunities Ahead.” After the swell of enthusiasm that built during primary season, what’s happened ? Is hope alive? What’s bringing people to Denver? Live from Main Street will hear from the hopeful, the skeptical and those in between. And we’ll talk about what real change might really look like – and what’s already happening to prove it’s possible. Read Adele Stan’s “What will the Green Economy Look Like?

You can tune in – from your living room. We’ll be streaming right here.
