<p>This morning I recieved an email from <a href="http://www.democrats.com" target="_blank">democrats.com's</a> Bob Fertik, it was really an email from Andy Stern<br /> President of SEIU promoting their "army of guppies" campaign at <a href="http://walmart.purpleocean.org/answer/<br /> e577b36ae6211b0a8b74559a29b48a65" target="_blank">http://walmart.purpleocean.org</a></p> <p>I read both messages (they were pretty short and to the point) there were multiple links to take the same action (which i always like) and i clicked one, went to the website and used their activist tool to email some friends about the campaign. I was able to write my own message subject and my own message. I would say the functionality was pretty good. They offer a map that shows where current participants in the campaign are located and another color shows where my network is. Now i wonder if i willg et lots of yellow dots showing the people i emailed in florida and california (if those people visit the site and sign up.)</p> <p>The democrats.com email then gave me the option to opt out of messages from their partner organizations, or completely unsubscribe. Also a nice feature, they are acting as a trust broker in sending out messages from affiliated organizations. </p> <p>I Unsubscribed completely so that i could resubscribe at a new email address, the message didn't give me the option to change my preferences, which i was unhappy about.</p> <p>Upon re-signing up i was required to give my address, which i was unhappy about. I have no problem giving my zipcode, byut what are you using my address for? does this mean i will get more democrat direct mail? i would rather not get any. i have never given a political donation in response to direct mail. EVER.</p>
