Fred’s Collecting Different Information

Promoted by E.M.--Fred's campaign takes it one step further...

So, I went to sign in to Fred Thompson’s new website so see what was going on. And I was struck by this:

They want my cell phone provider. With my phone number and my provider, they can send me free, (for them) text messages. And they asked for my IM username. They want to talk to me. The Thompson campaign is the first campaign to ask me for that information. They can send me targeted messages.

That is very cool. And very, very important. This is the first glimpse of how they will use technology differently.

Hope you reach out to us small-time bloggers.

Not everyone is Hugh Hewitt or Michelle Malkin.

But 100 of us are as good as one of them, given we know our audiences personally, and many of us meet them in "Real World" and do get-togethers that way.
