#fdem09 Welcome to the UK's leading annual conference on all aspects of e-democracy, from e-campaigning, e-petitions and e-voting to the use of the internet and new technologies in the policy cycle; democratic activity and engagement. The event - our sixth - has now taken place, and our thanks to everyone who came along and spoke, attended, blogged and debated.
