I’m not sure if the two major party U.S. Presidential candidates, Barack Obama and John McCain, are using the RSS feed reader Google Reader to get their news (they’re probably busy with other stuff), but apparently their aides are. Google is highlighting the two campaigns in its new Power Readers in Politics site. This means one thing: You are about to enter a spin zone. The new site uses Google Reader’s “Shared items” functionality to spread information. Any item that is read in the feed reader can be shared, meaning that others can see the story and any comments you make on it.http://venturebeat.com/2008/08/18/spin-reader-google-reader-lets-political-candidates-and-pundits-share-news/
