Readers ask the questions on Philly grassroots site

Dan Gillmor notes another example of a grassroots journalism site doing original reporting. He writes that Philly Future is asking its readers to submit suggestions for questions to ask the city's chief information officer, who has agreed to an interview with the site. The tech discussion board Slashdot was one of the first sites to use this approach, soliciting readers to come up with questions for interview guests.
