Note to Editors:
"Was the general election won or lost on Twitter? Did the 140 phenomenon hold the clues or even predict the outcome way ahead of the results? Who are the online influencers that played a part in the future of the country and what did they
say, to who? How much of an impact did the televised debates have on the online world. Where is all this data, who owns it, how do you get to it and more importantly what can you do with it? On May 6th Andrew Lyons from Ultraknowledge.com will be showcasing this and much more as the unveil the social media activity they have been monitoring during the elections and will be discussing how this could change the way we think about elections forever!!"
Put together by Paul Sakoilsky, artist & editor of the dark times, in collaboration with ourhistory.
