TechPresident was a nonpartisan political website founded by Andrew Rasiej and Micah Sifry[1] with the idea of tracking how the Internet is impacting U.S. political campaigns. It was launched on February 12, 2007[2] to monitor the United States presidential election of 2008 and was active until 2015. The site followed how the campaigns were utilizing new Internet-based strategies and how citizens were creating content, such as YouTube videos and Facebook groups, using the social media technologies.
