Disruptive Conversations

Kudos to Facebook for their effort today in encouraging people to vote in today's US election! Opening a Facebook window today, it was hard to miss the encouragement to vote:

After I voted this morning and clicked the "I Voted" button in Facebook, I had the opportunity to post that to my Wall along with a message (which of course I did):

And now whenever I go back to my browser and look at Facebook again, there is that box at the top of my NewsFeed counting away the number of Facebook users who have pressed that button... approaching 4 million users when I took the screenshot...

... and passing by the 4 million mark in the time it took me to write this post.

All in all it's very cool to see!
