Social Media and the 2008 US Presidential Election

I've always loved politics. Since an early age I've been fascinated by all levels, and for that matter all jurisdictions. I suppose this is what fuels my news consumption, and relatedly what attracts me to innovative uses of technology. The upcoming US Presidential election, which is arguably already underway, promises to be quite a battlefield when it comes to the use of technology, explicitly social media, such as facebook, youtube, etc. It was with this in mind that Nancy Wilson and I had a chat about the election, and just how nasty it may turn out to be, thanks to the fog of war the Internet fosters when it comes to campaigns and electioneering.
