Tweeting the Debate With Current TV

Four years ago at Telephone Bar in NYC, Noel Hidalgo and I talked about an idea to run an IRC back channel during the presidential debates. This morning I saw a tweet from him about remixing the debates and reminded him of our idea. He has now blogged about something very cool. Current TV and Twitter have teamed up and will be aggregating debate related tweets and displaying them on Current TV.

Third Party W(r)ench - Paris Swipes McCain. (NSFW)

In May of last year, I wrote a blog entry called "Defending Paris" wherein I expressed compassion for her being locked up. I later wrote that I'd hoped that she'd see the light, have some kind of conversion experience and start speaking truth to power. (You could say I'm a dreamer...)

Well, today, Paris comes through - kinda. It's clearly a spoof and she definitely rehearsed the lines someone else wrote for her, but OMG - this was Hil-ARIOUS. But she responds to the McCain ad which tried to throw some mud on Obama's "celebrity" status. A ridiculous line of attack given McCain's own penchant for celebritizing.

(some strong language might not be suitable for a mindful workplace, not to mention, y'know... Paris in a swimsuit) (after the jump...)

Edwards Campaign Goes Carbon Neutral and Helps Voters Do It Too!

John Edwards is the first presidential candidate to go carbon neutral. Not only has the campaign taken steps to offset its carbon footprint and conserve energy, they have also launched ReduceYourCarbon.com a site that lets people pledge to reduce carbon emissions through concrete steps like changing incandescents to fluorescents, adjust the thermostat, improve fuel economy through reducing driving or keeping tires inflated.
