Everyone knows what you did last summer. In spite of a small victory for privacy last month, Facebook's policies still raise major privacy questions -- and young people may be developing an entirely new conception of privacy online.

Barack Obama announces his decision to opt out of public financing in a video sent straight to supporters; McCain launches his first Facebook app: a video tour through the "Straight Talk Express" bus; a new Google maps gallery mashes up political data and geography; Capitol Words offers a daily extraction of Congress's most popular word; and more.

Obama hits the one millionth Facebook supporter mark and we wonder who gets the digital toaster; an effort to Google link McCain to some unfavorable press reports success; the battle between bloggers and the Associated Press continues, with the AP laying out a price scale for excerpts; a new Off the Bus feature makes it trivial to get access to campaign press calls; and more.

The HuffPost breaks more news, this time about Hillary's close-door comments; two strategists weigh in on why there's no conservative MoveOn; the perils of Obama's social networking strategy; a million strong Facebookers are united against Hillary; now you too can become Hillary, Barack, or John; and Time tackles the roots of liberal dominance of the web.

Clay Shirky talks to Salon about online organizing, Obama Girl, and more; polls show Obama Girl is getting tiresome; the Hillary Clinton Deathwatch is keeping a close eye on Hillary's chances; Jeff Jarvis asks who should be the nation's CTO; now all of the candidates have produced versions of Hillary's "3am" ad; The John McCain Facebook Challenge encourages Republicans to befriend the McCainiac; and McCain's campaign hires a new web guru.

A new Hillary Clinton Facebook app may be too late; a MySpace poll shows increased support for Obama; a mysterious Edwards URL redirects to Barack Obama's site; what are those superdelegates doing all day?; barely a nod to the web during last night's Democratic debate; Hillary's campaign finally embraces a piece of voter-generated content.

Obama beats Clinton in Wisconsin and Hawaii, maybe with the help of a text campaign; a tech consultant analyzes Clinton and Obama's policy proposals and finds that Obama actually has more substance; more videos appear showing candidates borrowing catchphrases, applause lines, and hair styles; Obama's numbers take off again on YouTube; McCain sees life on Facebook; and the web's response to a possible Lessig run for Congress.
