How is Technology Changing Politics?
Jacob Soboroff, Field Vlogger
Greetings from Personal Democracy Forum 2008, the conference about how technology is changing politics. WESUN Senior Supervisory Producer Davar Iran Ardalan and I rounded up some movers and shakers here yesterday and invited them to sit with us in our temporary NPR mini-studio -- aka a backstage dressing room at Jazz at Lincoln Center -- to share their thoughts on the conference and more. You'll notice Davar recording the audio for a segment coming up on Weekend Edition Sunday!
Yesterday afternoon Davar and I sat down with Huffington Post founder Arianna Huffington, MySpace IMPACT Director Lee Brenner and blogger Matt Stoller of OpenLeft.com for a 10-minute conversation about how what they do is literally changing politics as we know it -- and maybe public radio too. NPR's very own Andy Carvin makes a cameo appearance too. He streamed our entire chat live andycarvin.com on the internet yesterday with his Qik camera.
