(CBS/What's Trending) Did you miss the premiere episode of What's Trending? Here's your chance to see what you need to know to be in the now.
On our very first episode, we had actress and "Dancing with the Stars" finalist Chelsea Kane and political commentator Cenk Uygur from "The Young Turks" and MSNBC on our couches to discuss our Trending Now and Like / Dislike segments. Political strategiest Joe Trippi joined us on video chat talking about whether Twitter followers and Facebook Likes translate into voters.
In our Election 2012 poll during the live show we asked viewers, "Do you vote for who you follow?" An overwhelming 45 percent of you said that you follow multiple candidates. Thirty-eight percent of you do not follow politicians at all online, and 16 percent of you only want to read from people you are likely to vote for.
We also took one-on-one time with our #influencer, Talib Kweli. He made headlines this past week when he defended Common's invite to the White House against Fox News outcry, an issue that has been debated by many people including Jon Stewart and Bill O'Reilly.
