Mobile Technology & Politics

If you like politics and technology, then I've just got chocolate in your peanut butter.

The liberal New Politics Institute has just released a very cool study on the use of "mobile" technology. (You can download their PDF here.) This is not just some techie-babble stuff that will never be used in real campaigns. It's coming to your city -- especially to the younger voters in your city.

The world is changing. For example, pretty soon, old-fashioned polling won't work the same way (because nobody will have a "home phone"). Think about it; you probably use your mobile to store pictures, email, and to talk. Some people already use them for GPS, music, surfing the internet, and videos, too.

Trust me, it's coming to a campaign near you ...
