Election Night Results

Nov 04 2008 Published by under applications, news

Some quick thoughts on the election and the digital world.

Best streaming video (I wasn’t near a real TV for several hours tonight): MSNBC.com

Biggest Twitter bummer: @barackobama didn’t tweet after 3pm PST.  I was hoping for a tweet to announce the acceptance speech, so I could shift my attention to the streaming video!

Best Twitter find: @suntimes picks up the slack!

Best presidential election results map: CNN.com, is still the champ on this, from the data to the interface.

Best “new” TV feature: holograms on CNN, including Will.I.Am; “You’re my only hope, O-Ba-Ma”

Best photo from Obama’s historic speech in Grant Park: unknown.  But I can’t wait to see them all tomorrow.  There were some very beautiful images of Barack with the skyline in the background.  Gave this Chicago native the chills.
