Having conquered the world of social poking, America's number-two social networking site, Facebook, has opted to toss its hat into the political arena.
The site has established a formal partnership with ABC News that lets users "electronically follow ABC reporters, view reports and video and participate in polls and debates, all within a new 'U.S. Politics' category," according to a story published today by The New York Times.
ABC News and Facebook started working together several weeks back, setting up profiles for ABC reporters such as The Note's Rick Klein and in-house Obama reporter, Sunlen Miller.
Just in case anyone doubted the commitment of these strange new political bedfellows, both organizations are jointly sponsoring Democratic and Republican presidential debates on January 5th in New Hampshire, three days before that state's primary.
