email discuss Posted by Jessica Clark on Feb 5, 2008 at 12:20 PM
Elections are inherently both public and participatory, so naturally there are scores of related public media projects. In honor of Super Tuesday, here are just a few worth checking out:
- American Public Media: Select a Candidate: This interactive survey helps users to match their political opinions with those of the candidates, and then join political discussions at Gather.com.
- YouTube’s You Choose ‘08 Super Tuesday Map: Users can upload and share media related to their local primaries via a Google-powered mapping interface.
- New York Times Polling Place Photo Project: Users can upload photos of their polling places, capturing “the richness and complexity of voting in America.”
- Liveblogging 2.0: Brave New Films and The Young Turks: Audience members are encouraged to send tips, comments and links to this multiplatform live political show—just one of hundreds of blogs and sites of all political and journalistic pursuasions that will feature live audience interaction as tonight’s results roll in. Check out Technorati’s politics page to find out where the action is.
