Can't Get Enough Facebook

We've been talking an awful lot about social networking sites like Facebook lately, and with good reason. Barak Obama has recently added a Facebook link to his website, and he's putting it to full use. Barak is not only putting a smiling face on Facebook and asking for friends, he's putting up the rarely used Facebook Notes, as well as events.


He also doesn't seem to be editing wall postings for language or content, which could gain him popularity among the Facebook Crowd? Example:


And, he's on Flikr as well...which is becoming a strong trend among candidates.




Tom Visack has also joined the online community, becoming a member on the host of social networking sites that seem to be making up the campaign so far. This from his campaign website:Will these sites help candidates gain momentum and grassroots support? It seemed to work for Dean, but now they just have to find a way to translate that support into actual votes, where Dean ultimately failed.


So far, no word from Republicans on social networking sites. Come on guys, even FoxNews has a sponsored Facebook group.
