Insights about using the Internet for grassroots democracy can be gained from the Telecommunications Policy Roundtable Northeast (TPR-NE), a public interest coalition in Boston. TPR-NE used the Internet as a discussion forum, a low-cost communication medium, a distributor of expert information, and a tool for maintaining collective enthusiasm in dispersed groups. The Internet supports citizens' associations, which are vital institutions for democracy.
