Inaug-o-rama!
*Participate in "The Moment" project by CNNPolitics.com, which will use Microsoft's photosynth technology to create a massive, 3-D photo compilation of the precise moment Obama takes his oath of office. Email your photo of that moment to themoment@cnn.com and then, later, head to cnn.com/themoment to see the results.
*See Link Live's Inauguration tweetstream at http://twitter.com/linklive.
*Go to CNN's political ticker, http://twitter.com/politicalticker, for the network's tweet coverage
* National Public Radio has set up a way for people going to the Inaugural to tweet their experiences and impressions by using the hashtag #dctrip09 to describe their travel to Washington and #inaug09 on Inauguration Day to weigh in on what it's like to be in the middle of it all. Follow twitter.com/inauguration for the latest tweets.
*Current and Twitter are teaming up again to broadcast as many tweets as possible over the inauguration ceremony and also will be streaming the event live.
*Check out Inaugurationreport.com, a joint project of NPR, CBS, American University, and others. The site compiles input from on-the-street citizen reporters through Flickr, YouTube, Twitter and other mobile applications.
*For a similarly condensed view of online inaugural-mania, do a Big Buzz search on Icerocket. This search site gives near real-time results from the Web, blogs, Twitter, video sites, news sites, and other Web 2.0 tools and mashes it all onto one page.
