Twittering the Obama rally
When Senator Barack Obama rolls into town Saturday the N&R will, of course, have a reporter at the rally.
But we'll also be covering it via Twitter, an online social networking site that allows its users to post short, real-time updates from anywhere.
The Obama campaign is (perhaps over) using the site already. McCain less so, though some seem to be using it on his behalf. His campaign's had a little trouble with the site already.
In short bursts of 140 characters or less, I'll describe the scene in real time - the crowd, the speech, the whole shebang. It'll be like Internet Haiku.
