The Internet is ready for the next Presidential race in the United States.
The Washington Post reports today that people representing more than 500 Internet brands, individual political consultants, and folks associated with the campaigns met last week to talk politics and the internet.
Follow the money.
PQ Media, in the story, says $5 million dollars was spent in 2002. In 2004, it was $29 million. In 2006, it was $40 million.
BrandGames wants to create video games around the candidates.
Yahoo wants to use its Yahoo Groups and Answers, it's home pages and its news feeds' to work for the candidates.
Google wants to use YouTube, google ads, and analysis tools for the candidates.
You didn't think the election was just about the issues, did you??

Well, there might be more than one version of the game, internationally,
but in the States we already have it,
It's the Presidential election. There are interesting sub-categories:
for slurs, rumours and innuendoes, no evidence needed, in the game.
Very creative.
