Google tells me R*M are experts on Obama - well, it must be true!

This morning I’ve been doing some research in to Barack Obama’s use of social media both in the primaries and the election-proper and was about to Twitter my iritation that every single blogger ever (and this is in no way an exaggeration) has blogged on Obama’s use of social media. I decided not to rant at the Twitter-verse, however, and instead decided to carry myself with a little more decorum.
Decorum, however, was thrown out of the windown when, to my surprise, I googled ‘Obama social media’ and saw this:
…yep, thats right; if you google ‘Obama social media’ through all of the noise, all of the manifold articles that have been blogged about Obama, Dan’s post ranks at number 5 on Google. Hurrah (…for Dan).
I suppose then its a good job that R*M will be presenting some of its thoughts on Obama’s success at Digital Lounge’s ‘Obama 2.0: Lessons in Social Media from the Obama Presidential campaign’ in the new year.
