Here at the UBC School of Journalism we have just launched a new  
online project, tracking the social media buzz on the federal elections.

NetPrimeMinister.ca  aggregates blog content, YouTube videos, Twitter  
comments and Flickr photos about the race, offering a different  
perspective on the race to be Canada's next prime minister.

I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on it.

Best, Alfred
