Super Tuesday in the USA… Does it matter who wins?

Perhaps you’re like many people across the world – a bit jaded with political processes and elections? Well, here’s another take on Super Tuesday…

As I write, voting has started in the USA on what is billed as ‘one of the biggest days in American political history’. John McCain appears to be in pole position for the Republicans, with neither Barack Obama nor Hillary Clinton likely to amass enough delegates to secure the contest for the Democrats.

Well, we’ll see… But will it make a lot of difference to the world who wins the election? Most institutions have already discounted the results and the major complaint seems to be that the principle candidates all have the same policies!

But the one thread which could really change the world is how the new President elected in November deals with global peace – aka ‘terrorism’ – and defuses the present ‘imperialistic’ approach.

At least we in the west can take comfort from the fact that – in most cases – democracy affords us changes of government that don’t involve bloodshed and shields us from many of the sectarian and tribal excesses that, sadly, continue to trouble the world.

But I digress…

Have a look at how Google is using Youtube and Google Mapping to cover the Super Tuesday process:

As google notes: “This is the first presidential election in which YouTube has given voters the same power to broadcast the events as the big broadcasters have. We’ve created a central location to follow the action on video and we’re pulling in video clips from voters, candidates, and news organizations across the country on a Google Map…all these great videos on one map gives the most diverse narrative of the campaign trail…scroll across the map and zoom in to see videos from your area”.

So perhaps there IS a revolution going on – at grass roots level… Perhaps we’re at a watershed for news reporting, where YOU will be the one that captures and ‘edits’ the news, rather than the unseen producers behind the great media houses?

What do you think is the future of news reporting? Will Google (or the potential new Microsoft/Yahoo combo) take over the lead in 2008?

Please post your views below…

Cheers!

Research studies have determined that the public tends to assign a higher degree of trust and believability to web sites and resources that are returned as part of the “organic” or non-paid search results.

In addition, other recent studies indicate a much greater reliance on direct recommendations and endorsements by others that are seen as “real” people and not the contrived or skewed search results that may have been the product of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) tweaks and tricks.

It would seem that the more refined our use of the Internet has become, the more we tend to rely upon and trust the traditional suggestions and tips of other humans.

It is this very factor that is at the forefront of Web 2.0.

Increasingly, Google and other search platforms are attempting to assess and weigh the human factors of web use and web site reliance and reliability.

When you learn to give Google and the other organizers of Internet data what they are looking for…You will position yourself to be an “authority” and, potentially, the “obvious expert” on any given topic.

Your copy of the “Web 2.0 Resource Bible” will signify to others that you understand the evolution of online marketing and have armed yourself with the knowledge and tools to succeed now and well into the future.
