Jose Antonio Vargas: Technology + Transparency = New Politics

Reading more and more of Jose's stuff on Huffpost. Excellent perspective that MUST be listened to. No matter our politics...we agree on the tech/politics intersection. Here's a quote.

"Because of the one-way nature of television, leaders have been trained to talk down to their constituents. But because of the two-way street that is the Internet, politicians must learn how to listen and engage the very people they're accountable for. Many pols have adapted, at least in the superficial sense. They blog. They create YouTube channels and Facebook fan pages. They drop Twitter in almost every other paragraph to sound and seem like they "get it.""

New Tool Adds Twitter Search To Google

Cool stuff here. Twitter search results within google. I'm pretty happy with some of the other search/subscribe tools out there...but I could see using this regularly for ad hoc searching. As we all know, Twitter is a great tool for building community, branding, and extending the conversation...in business or in a political campaign.

Barack Obama: How Many Web Gurus Did It Take to Elect Obama?

Here's the Obama tech dream team identified. Here's the difference between this effort and what ORS is doing. This was an effort I've heard estimated at $75-$100 million and it's the biggest election in the world. YOUR campaign needs similar strategy and tools without the $2500/day price tag. Well...we've got you covered. Tax Day. Until then...
