Much to talk about since our last news post. We launched the Dear American Voter project for Link TV in March, a community-powered video commentary site. Definition celebrated its fourth anniversary on St. Patrick's Day, sans shamrocks. We've also welcomed a new member, Jeff Glover, to the Definition team. Two more projects launching in the coming weeks, stay tuned.

Are you getting in the swing of holiday spending, and enjoying the feeling of being generous? Would you rather help someone in need, rather than fill up a landfill with clamshell packaging and used AA batteries? If you said "yes" to both (even if you're reluctant to say yes to the first one), then we strongly encourage you to join us in donating to our favorite charities, an effort we like to call Project G.O.A.T.
