Some nifty Election Night resources
There are plenty of places to get results and analysis tonight, but there are also some alternatives out there offering different ways of visualizing what’s going on through data, video and photography.
Here’s a random sampling I found in my Google Reader and shared on my link blog:
-Twitter’s Vote Report provides a river of election-related tweets and maps them. (Thanks, Mindy McAdams.)
-An Orange America (sponsored by Tropicana/Pepsi Co.) is a data visualization project that shows the frequency and context of election-related tweets. (Thanks, Jack Lail.)
-Persptv pulls together the latest from polls, news sites, blogs and Twitter. (Thanks, TechCrunch.)
-Flickr has a steadily updated slideshow of photos using the tag election08. (Thanks again, Mindy.)
-YouTube’s Video Your Vote project maps videos from across the country. (Thanks, RWW.)
Enjoy.
