Live Streaming Election Coverage by Mobloggers

Live Streaming Election Coverage by Mobloggers

What's more powerful than all the broadcast and cable networks combined? Hundreds of moblogger*/pollwatchers reporting live and on-the-scene from the polling places of America on Election Day, November 2, 2004. Here's what we have in mind:

  • MoReporters: With cell phones, preferably on-site at polling places. Even better if you're an official pollwatcher.
  • MoBloggers: Planning you're own election-night blog? We'll try to follow it on the air.
  • MoAnchors: We need two on-air personalities, preferably with access to a college radio or NPR studio. (The IT Conversations studio is equipped with industry-standard ISDN hardware.)
  • MoProducers: Finally, we need people to coordinate the incoming calls and blogs and direct them to the anchors.

Interested in any of the above roles? Add a link to to the wiki pages or email doug@rds.com.

(* "Mobloggers" are mobile bloggers, i.e., with mobile phones and cameras.)
