Internet Tips, Tricks and Politics
By Liz Bulkley on Tuesday, June 19, 2007.
No matter how much you may know about the internet, there's always something new out there that can make your online experience better. Tonight on the Front Porch, we talk with editor, blogger and tech expert Mark Frauenfelder about all the hidden gems the web has to offer. Mark is the founder of the popular technology blog Boing Boing, and he's the author of the new book Rule the Web. We'll also explore the growing role the internet is playing in presidential politics. Howard Dean's groundbreaking use of the web already seems a bit outdated by 2007 standards. We'll talk with New Hampshire Public Radio new media director Brady Carlson to find out what candidates are doing to stay ahead online and how voters can use their computers to sort out all the information coming their way.
