[1]A week from now the world will be descending on Washington, DC for the inaugural festivities. The NPR Social Media desk staffed by Andy Carvin will be repurposing the guts of Twitter Vote Report [2] for use on Election Day for attendees to share their travel and inauguration experiences.
So, if you're in DC next week, or on your way, use use the hashtag #dctrip09 to describe your roadtrip in and #inaug09 on Inauguration Day to share your experiences. Tweet it or use the really cool iPhone app that will enables you to report and automatically map where you.
Also, for the latest help in planning for the big day you can follow twitter.com/inauguration [3] for up to the minute details. What are some other ways you're using Twitter to share the Inaugural festivities more broadly? Who else should we be following?

www.linklive.org [5] will be on the internet broadcasting the event from cities across the USA. Follow them on Twitter right now, at www.twitter.com/linklive [6].
This sounds obvious, but I actually really enjoy CNN's political Ticker blog - follow them for tweet by tweet coverage: http://twitter.com/politicalticker [7]
I can't wait until next week (and the next 4 years)!

We want to invite twitterers who want to share their voice to also just call the Obama ALL Call for the inauguration. Every time they call in to report on the inauguration or just celebrate, we will post a link to the audio on twitter at: http://search.twitter.com/search?q=%23inaug09 [9]
This can be come the audio version of tweeting which will be great for the 70+ % in attendance who dont want to deal with a lot of text messaging.
Add your twitter info here and call it in at the inaugural ALL CALL
