Livesnark the debate goes national!

It’s not just the locals … twitter users everywhere are using the service to livesnark debates and other current events.

Current TV (available on Dish Network, DirecTV, and other places) will link up people posting to #current on Twitter during the debate by broadcasting those tweets on-screen.

We were evil enough last time, and it was just the locals. It’s like a live, on-screen, collective drinking game.  Then again, we may need it to get through an evening’s worth of Sarah Palin.

(I’m domesticat on twitter, but my updates are protected. I will give serious thought to un-protecting them during the debate.)

[hat tip to Jeff for discovering this program’s existence.]

Passing on the credit

Wish I could take credit, but it was actually Catherine who tipped me off to this.
