Now you have a chance to register your reactions to the Vice Presidential 
and Presidential debates live and online, while the candidates are 
speaking, with InPulse.  InPulse is a new experiment in online polling 
being conducted by Digital Equipment Corporation.  

Check out http://debates96.election.digital.com/ to see how it
works; and to see the results from the first Presidential debate.

Next up is the Vice Presidential debate, taking place this Wednesday, 
October 9 (9PM Eastern/6PM Pacific).  The final Presidential debate 
will be Wednesday, October 16. 

Briefly: you watch the debates on live TV, or listen on live radio, 
and simultaneously connect to the InPulse web site (above).  When 
a candidate says something you feel like reacting to, you click an 
approve/disapprove button on your computer.  When the debate is over, 
wait a few minutes and see the preliminary results of the polling 
there on the Web! 

This is an experiment in polling technology.  It is not a scientific 
poll.  But please come and experience the polling technology of the 
future.
