Blog #11: Twitter!

Facebook Politicians Are Not Your Friends

This article was very interesting it was first interesting to here about how different political veiws had been changed through the use of the internet like senatorial candidate, George Allen of Virginia, was caught on camera delivering a racial slur and this more or less took him out of the running. Or how people use twitter more how politicians use twitter. They use it to access the public but some cheat and have other people tweet for them which I think is like lying. A twitter should be your own personal thing not something used for advertising. And I think its disrespectful to the public that Sarah Palin paid some one to write her "internet messages." The part of this article that appealed to me was the politically related bits in which I wrote about here. There is more in this article as well.
This article gives an over view of how Obama used the internet to his advantage though out his campaign. It became a campaign tool and one in which Obama used well. Pay attention to where the author talks about how the internet was used in his campaign.
