US Presidential Election 2008 : Blastfeed to follow the Internet flow of information

May 7, 2007 – 2:00 pm

For the forthcoming US Presidential election, we have launched a web site automatically powered by Blastfeed that monitors hundreds of web feeds and detects any US candidate name in posts.

Blastfeed updates in real time a counter per candidate that defines his/her standing against the others. Each score is closely related to the candidate’s presence in the media.
