Last night I celebrated the election at Twitter’s headquarters in San Francisco. Twitter held up amazing well under tremendous load, especially when the election was called for Obama.

Earlier in the evening I stopped by the Digg and Current Election party. Here’s when Kevin Rose and Martin Sargent officially called it for Obama on the Current broadcast.
