Summary

I wanted to take a quick second to (1) thank you for what has been just an incredible 72 hours for socialmedian. Since launching our election site with the Washington Post a couple of days ago, (http://election.socialmedian.com), your response has been overwhelmingly positive. Usage of socialmedian has sky-rockted, with visits, pageviews, time spent, clips, comments, and nearly every other metric we track growing by more than 300% the past few days. During this time we have also grown our registered users by nearly 20%, thanks to many efforts, not least of which the warm embrace from Leo Laporte at Twit.tv who interviewed me on his live show on Thursday night. http://twit.tv/natn72. (Worth a listen if you haven't already heard it, and a big welcome to those of you who found us through Leo's show).

2. I'm pleased to announce that Leo and I will be teaming up for an election night

I've listened to Leo for a very long time. More than not he hits the nail on the head concerning tech. I knew when I heard you guys discuss Socialmedian this would be a winner.

I wouldn't know what social median was if not for Leo's show. I'm new to this site but I have already become a fan.

Call/email your local TV networks & tell them not to say anything that might stop people on the west coast from vote. Don't say a thing before 10 est, which would be 7 on the west coast which is when the polls will close. Don't let this election be stolen.
