Twit Rapper: Obama Online

Twit Rapper was created as a spin-off from my Book Rapper book summaries. Book Rapper summaries take a leading business book and redesign it so you can read it in about 30 minutes. Twit Rapper takes these summaries and redesigns for you to read in FIVE minutes. They’re a series of 26 tweets in a animated slideshow format. And, they demonstrate how content can be formatted in multiple ways.

Obama Online

Barack Obama’s victory in the US Presidential Election of 2008 has set the benchmark for what can be achieved using social media.

The three keys to leading with social media are:

  1. Design your campaign to spark the right actions
  2. Lead your supporters with direct conversations and
  3. Provide the tools to let your grassroots community create and share content.

Derived from Rahaf Harfoush’s Yes We Did.
