They say politics is about communication, and communication in this "web 2.0" world means social media via Twitter, Facebook, blogs, Digg and other buzzworthy ways to keep up to date with our communities.

Three Austin-based politicos won The Statesman's First Annual Social Media Awards tonight, including Railroad Commissioner Michael Williams, Texas Public Policy Foundation media director/lobbyist David Guenthner and Burnt Orange Report's Matt Glazer. (I've linked you to their twitter pages if you aren't already following them.) Congratulations, guys!
