Election Night Look from WBUR
Nov 5th, 2008 | By DebOnTheWeb | Category: Other Stuff, TechnologyLast night I joined a dynamic group of people at WBUR, Boston’s National Public Radio station to Twitter About the Election. I truly feel that this election has shown that it is possible to bring government back to “by the people” and “for the people” and social media is leading the way.
We were, of course, listening to WBUR while FoxNews was on in the background. Andrea Mercado is a wizard at multi tasking and kept us posted on what was happening on Twitter Vote Report while Jeff Cutler, Gradon Tripp, Scott Frazer, Adam Zand and Mike Langford shared what people were saying on their Twitter streams.
Here are some more photos and videos taken as we Twittered About the Election from the station.
Social media had a significant effect on the election – what role will it play in the interesting times ahead?





Deb. Great meeting you at the station. Will keep an eye out for your stuff and am looking forward to the 2014 tweetup for the first woman president.
I enjoyed meeting you last night too, Jeff. 2014 will definitely be interesting!
Great seeing, tweeting and Utterli-ing with you last night.
Obama-mite!
Thanks Adam – it was great seeing and tweeting with you last night as well!
Let me add to that chorus of “great seeing/meeting” you at the station.
And thanks for helping educate us old media folk about Twitter and social media in general. It was fun and informative (for us as I hope it was for you) and I hope it won’t be until 2014 until you visit with us again. Please grace us with your insights at the next social media open house here at 90.9.
Thanks again!
It was a great experience Ken and I thank you for the opportunity!
