measuring influence - measured by inbound links "like minded" websites
anthony has characterized mememorandum as RED (ie, "conservative"). huh?
could it be because they have labeld libertarian/technology blogs as 'red'? could it be the ronPaul syndrome? I don't think of memeorandum as anything but an aggregator.
this is not unlike blogpulse
developed president watch, that maps 533 websites talking about the presidential race

In Matthew's model: blue is livejournal and red is blogspot
Tweets from the session:
good data visualization session ... for folks who like that. (count me in). matthew is showing how tech/political blogs interact.
matthew: blog attention on hillary/obama switched in january, ahead of other polling
now looking at oil — from barrel cost to record profits and now on offshore drilling - shows trends in terms and mentions
VERY good illustrations
