Real Time, Real Fine

I am amazed at the level of discord occuring at the Republican National Convention. Outside, that is -- inside, all is sweet peace and harmony -- the Stepford Convention, just about. But outside, rocks, broken glass, cops dressed like storm troopers, and chanting agitators -- why, its like Chicago and Mayor Daley's convention, all over again.

But you know that old comment about The Revolution Will Be Televised? Well, apparently it'll be Twittered, too.

Real time coordination of tactics and status, both sides -- gotta love it. Now, if the agitators can just get the kind of hyper-snooping television feed like the cops have... and maybe a couple of UAVs....
