If you are of liberal leanings it doesn't cost much to join the Lib
Dems and they seem to be trying a bit..

The libdemsonline website online website at online.libdems.org.uk is
now a blog, I don't see what the benefits of membership are tho.

The online manifesto discussion seems fairly healthy :
http://manifesto.libdems.org.uk

The blogs are very active and have some healthy discussion : libdemblogs.co.uk/

And finally, I just created a mailing list on the lib dem list server
for discussing open source and open standards, which I'll start
plugging on the relevent lib dem blogs shortly.
