Founded by a former Hill staffer, http://www.yourcongress.com gives daily political headlines and allows visitors to sign up to receive alerts whenever their representatives or senators have something in the Congressional Record. That includes what they've said on the floor and what they've inserted into the record. If you like, you can read the insertion online.
You can also pay to receive updates on any special issues you're following.
The site's overall approach is light. The line under the site's name says, "Learn. Track. Laugh." One of the three elements for communicating directly with your rep is called Quick Bitch. The other two are Quick Thanks and Quick Free.
