Here we go! @EnergyCommerce's big tech ceo hearing is kicking off now. I'll be threading highlights here:

theverge.com/2020/10/16/215… The island's design is extremely thoughtful and the digital team paid very close attention to detail. Even the coffee mugs in the field office were customized with the Biden-Harris campaign logo.

Bernie Sanders is holding an online "fireside chat" tonight. The coronavirus is forcing campaigns to move online to protect the candidates and their supporters.

Biden tried a Zoom call last night. There were a lot of technical hiccups. Catch up here:
theverge.com/2020/3/14/2117… There's one main difference between Biden and Bernie's online solutions so far:
