Twitter and Google mash it up for Super Tuesday

twitter_googlemaps1.jpgThis was too cool not to mention. Google and Twitter have teamed up to create a mashup that shows Twitters related to the election and the locations they are coming from. Twitters that use certain keywords (i.e. vote, McCain, election) automatically appear on the map. It's really interesting (mesmerizing actually) to gauge the pulse of the voters across the country, and it sure beats the five rotating voter quotes at NYTimes.com.

Mad Men Guide to New York

I found myself missing my favorite new show of the year, "Mad Men" during the recent winter onset. I checked in on the "Mad Men" site and was relieved to find that it's been renewed for a second season. The bad news: episodes will not begin airing until the summer of 2008. Until then, re-visit the show with The "Mad Men" Guide to New York, a Google map of some of Don's haunts, including Menken's Department Store and the Gaslight Cafe.
