This Sunday, news organizations across America will participate in Sunshine Sunday — kick off to Sunshine Week — by running stories supporting access to government information. Not wanting bloggers to be excluded, FreeCulture.org is organizing Blogshine Sunday, to encourgage bloggers across the U.S. and beyond to write about the need for open government in the digital age.

You can join Blogshine Sunday by writing in your blog about open government and how it relates to you. The Blogshine Sunday blog will aggregate and link to the postings. (Go to the site for instructions on how to link your posting.)
