I captured the video below at Twitter Election 2008 website at 11:45pm on Monday, November 3, fifteen minutes before the 2008 American Presidential Election day. It is a one-minute long segment of real-time updates from election-oriented minds from all over the world.
I followed the election news on Twitter’s Election 2008 website. It is filled with pointers to quick news, facts, speculations, little emotional explosions, debates, lies, hates, etc etc, from people to people, in real time. I feel like this is where people have been so honestly upfront with all their beliefs, like it or not. It is difficult to get that anywhere else, so I recorded it to have a reference to it later on.
Besides I use it sporadically, Twitter has never been this useful for me - one pretty much witnesses history in real time on this website. I guess this is what happens in Twitter everyday anyway, however, this one has a greater historical implication.
Good times Twitter.
