• UK | Follow the UK election online (while waiting for official results)
  All over Europe today it's all about UK general election. Results show a victory of the Conservatives but without a majority - so, pointing to a hung Parliament. Oh, and the Greens get their first seat ever getting their leader Caroline Lucas (also on Twitter) elected in Brighton.

• UK | Final TV debate: a Twitter analysis
  Linguamatics and NPCU provided an insight of viewer sentiment based on tweet analysis:

  Top issues for the twitterers in the third debate (Figure 3 below) were immigration, banking, economy and tax. Clegg and Brown shared the lead on immigration, Clegg was ahead on banking and tax, whilst Brown clearly won on the economy. The fact that Camercon didn't win any issues of policy substance, but nevertheless improved his performance, suggested viewers are not assessing the leaders on policy specifics - hardly a revelation of course.

• UK | Nick Clegg and the electoral insurgency (on the Internet?)
  Nick Clegg, the leader of the Liberal Democrat party was little known until a few days ago, when his victory in the first television debate with Cameron and Brown gave him an unprecedented popularity. "The general election has become a genuine three-way contest with the Lib Dems, on 29%, enjoying their strongest support in almost 30 years." says the Times. And the Internet starts playing a significant role: in the 24 hours after last week's debate, the Lib Dems received £120,000 in small donations, a significant amount of money for the British scene. So far the LibDem party is also the only one to have a Facebook page (though unofficial) with more 140.000 members and is picking new support from people under 35.
