For those of you who are active on Twitter (or just interested observers), you may have been noticing the term #dontgo popping up.  This is in reference to the Don’t Go Movement to call Congress back into session for an immediate vote on an energy plan to lower your gas prices.

Politically-minded folks using Twitter and other Social Media reference #dontgo in their discussions online to help keep the conversation flowing and easily trackable.

An excerpt from Patrick Ruffini’s blog on The Next Right:

#dontgo is officially a movement. MoveOn is mobilizing against the House Republicans and the rightosphere this afternoon. I don’t think they’ve ever done this in response to a grassroots conservative protest. Something has changed…

Could #dontgo usher in an era of Republican technological dominance in the post-blogging world? Should we cede the blogosphere to the left, and focus on leapfrogging them in the use of tools most necessary to real-time political action? The answer could be yes.  #dontgo is creating a perfect storm where the emergence of a new technology is married to a pressing need to do something.
