As promised in our monthly newsletter, here is our Public Media 2.0 Field Report: Building Social Media Infrastructure to Engage Publics —Twitter Vote Report and Inauguration Report 09 —two projects that demonstrated the potential of microblogging formats for election monitoring before the recent upheaval in Iran brought the topic to international attention.

Research fellow Nina Keim and Future of Public Media director Jessica Clark released this most recent field report at the Public Democracy Forum conference in New York last month. The report reviews the achievements of both Twitter Vote Report and Inauguration Report ‘09 as they used Twitter and other social networking tools to engage and organize publics.
