A new Republican crowdsourcing project wants to get to the bottom of Hillary Clinton's earmarks; Barack Obama is king of the social networking sites, but hitting all of the socnets may not be in the interest of local candidates; PoliticsOnline announces "The Top 10 Who Are Changing the World of Internet and Politics"; a report from the Facebook Political Summit; Hillary Clinton snippy? A video proves otherwise; and a text message campaign from John Edwards connects you to... his campaign manager.

Next Wednesday the founders of TechRepublican.com, led by David All, will be leading the first-ever Modern Media Strategies workshop. The event is designed to teach conservative activists and Hill staffers about new media (or, as All calls it, “modern media”) and how to use the web the way the liberals do. It's the latest in a string of projects unleashed by a small group of online activists that has struck a chord with mainstream conservatives.
