Squawk Box February 6 – Super Tuesday aftermath

by alec on February 6, 2008

It's the day after Super Tuesday.  We've had a special guest on SquawkBox this morning named Jesse Hirsh.  Jesse Hirsh is a broadcaster, researcher, and Internet evangelist in Toronto, Canada. He frequently appears on CBC radio and has a weekly spot on CBC Newsworld, where he explains and analyzes the latest trends and developments in technology using language and examples that are meaningful and relevant to everyday life.  And he's been spending a bunch of time recently looking at the use of social media in the run up to the US presidential election.  This morning we talked about twitter, Facebook, blogs and other social media and how the McCain, Obama and Clinton campaigns used them.

Enjoy the podcast!

A double-decade veteran of product management and marketing, he spent nine years at Microsoft where he helped launch Windows 95, the first two versions of Internet Explorer, the Universal Plug and Play initiative, the push into home markets, opt-in email marketing and what might well go down in history as the very first direct email list ever.
