The 2008 election has not been a quite one.

With so much user content on the internet these days, the ability for everyone to connect and share their opinions on our next president has created a wide-spread dialogue across multiple platforms and social networks.

Now Twitter is getting involved.

Twitter launched an election 2008 page, where people can see automatic live feeds of election-related tweets. And can even sort by specific topics such as Wall Street, David Letterman, Katie Couric, or each of the candidates.

It’s a pretty cool way to connect with people that you normally wouldn’t interact with on Twitter, and get involved in a conversation with people that share your interests.

Check it out and let us know what you think!
