Welcome to TopCornerDiaries

Here at TopCorner, we get the sense that most of our fellow Americans feel like the current political situation isn't working.  With over 89% of Americans disproving of the way Congress is doing its job and 88% believing that money buys results in Congress, we understand that Americans don't believe the political system is working for them.  We get the the average American feels like the Special Interests control our government, and with our Representatives spending 40-70% of their time raising campaign funds, they are not far off.  We get that Americans are busy people: we go to school, we work, we raise our families. We understand that most of us just don't have the time or energy to rally in the streets.  Still, we are Americans.  We live in a country founded and maintained by the democratic process and every one of us knows in our hearts that we care about how our country, our state, and our local communities are governed.  We know that we would stand up and make our voices heard if only there was an easier and more effective way...That's where we come in...

We, the developers of TopCorner, have a dream, to create the best ever web-based social decision making platform aimed at producing political action.  Our goal is to create a new space where having a voice in politics and public policy is easy and engaging, a place where you can share your ideas with your friends, community, and countrymen.  And most importantly, we want to create a system in which your votes actually make a difference.

As we work day...and night...to make our dreams of making your voices heard once more, TopCornerDiaries will be our way of keeping you informed of what we here at TopCorner are doing behind the scenes.  As we code, test, restructure, and improve TopCorner.org, there won't be a need to wait for Toto to pull back the curtain...We'll happily do it for you.
