TRNS Social Media Coverage of the Conventions

It's pretty late at night, and I need to crash. But, I'd really like to give props to the social media community. Many users and companies have been very helpful in distributing our content around the web, and allowing us to engage in conversation.


The entire Talk Radio News staff is working hard to continue coverage from the Democratic and Republican conventions. We provide audio content to talk radio stations all over the country. Talk Radio News is, however, also utilizing social media to quickly publish media from the conventions, and provide perspective from behind the scenes.


Much thanks to the staff at Qik who provided me with a few essential tools for the Nokia N95 cell phone. Qik allows users to stream content live from their phones direct to the web - Jackie, Bhaskar, and the entire Qik staff have been very supportive.


The entire staff at Seesmic have helped us talk to YOU about what types of coverage really matter. Thanks, Seesmic - you're wonderful!


Twitter / Seesmic user @Tiil has made a VERY cool site that aggregates all the Talk Radio News Service content - Check it out!


Another Twitter / Seesmic @silverton created a Tumblr that also pulls together our pictures, video, and audio posts - thanks, Michael!
