Quick Notes
Submitted by Aldon Hynes on Thu, 08/07/2008 - 21:20I wrote an article for SLNN which I had hoped would be up by now and I could cross post. It isn't up yet, so I figured I would write a quick post, so I could have something other than an automated post from ma.gnolia up today.
Besides writing the SLNN post, I have started reading a pre-release copy of Stephen Mansfield's book, The Faith of Barack Obama
Mansfield also wrote The Faith Of George W. Bush
It will be interesting to contrast the two books. In other news, we had a tornado warning here in Connecticut around dinner time and on Saturday I will be going to a SocialMediaBBQ.
Update: I had the wrong link for the book about President Bush's faith. Here is the correct link:

Mobile Social Media at the Democratic Convention
Submitted by Aldon Hynes on Tue, 08/05/2008 - 20:51This evening, I ran a BlogTalkRadio show about Democratic Delegates to Denver Using Social Media. Jen Just, who is an Obama delegate from Connecticut called in, as did a friend of ours named Sheila.
One thing I mentioned on the show was the demconvention room that I set up on FriendFeed. It is aggregating social media from various people going to Denver, including Jen as well as many of my friends around the country. Please check the room out, and if you know of people who will be using Social Media in Denver, please let me know so I can add their material to the feed into the room.
With BlogTalkRadio, besides saving an archive of the show, which should be up soon at the link above, there is also a chat. I don't believe the is saved, so I've saved it here below the fold.
We will have this show again next week to check in on how everyone is doing with mobile social media as they prepare for Denver, so if you have things you would like to share, please let me know.
