Winning in 2010: Online Fundraising and Mobilization

What Dean and Kerry’s experience suggested in 2004, Barack Obama proved beyond a doubt in 2008: an army of motivated online donor/volunteers can be a truly decisive force in politics.

Twitter Unveils a New Mobile Interface

For as long as we can remember Twitter has left application development to enterprising third-party developers. In recent months, however, the company has pushed out a number of additions to the platform, and today they’re unveiling a preview of the spiffy new mobile site that rivals Twitter.com in design and function.

You can try out the new mobile version of Twitter, which works best on Webkit browsers, by visiting http://mobile.twitter.com/ on your mobile device. Since it’s a preview, the new mobile interface will not replace the m.twitter.com experience for the time being, but you can look for that switch to happen in the coming months.
