Five quick observations about the Inauguration (and social media)
January 20, 2009

- Facebook tried to be Twitter, with a partnership with CNN. Will this happen more and more? Will Facebookers feel the need to Tweet?
- CNN.com served 13 million+ streams… but fell behind, and offered lower quality than UStream and Joost.
- Twitter stayed up, and so did the mobile networks!
- Whitehouse.gov launched at 12:01pm including a blog, podcasts, video, RSS… but without comments? (Like Obama’s inauguration, it’s a good start)
- The world watched, Together.
