« Voting machines finally get mainstream scrutiny; Colo. news blogger, an Army major, killed in Iraq; NFL playoffs: who you rooting for? | Main | The 'Hillary tears up' video; New TV to get 2 Web sites; Tax rebates for all? » January 6, 2008Last night in New Hampshire: The 'Facebook debate'ABC News/Facebook/WMUR debate: It's the Facebook part that stops me here. Google News was full of wire reports about the debates themselves, but I was looking for background on Facebook's entry into the branding bonanza that leads to college football games named Gaylord Hotels Music City Bowl and Roady's Truck Stops Humanitarian Bowl ("stops" is a noun there). Google itself landed me at an August post at a Dublin blog pointing to an October real-world discussion of Facebook: The Facebook Debate. (Sorry if this link leads you to "You must log in to see this page." Facebook is like that.) The agenda: Some of the views expressed so far include: It knows who you are. Eventually, I found today's NYT Caucus blog post: Youth Enter Debate Through Facebook -- it provided a realtime focus group. As for the debates themselves, The Two Debates Tonight Were Eye-Openers: Republicans Can't Even Get Along With Each Other! at OpEdNews and Instapundit's links wrap Vaguely related: Which of the Presidential Candidates would you rather have a beer with in 2008?
