The director of a local software firm says the vastly increased use of social media in the run-up to next month's Manx general election is inevitable.
In 2006, the year of the last election, Facebook was just starting to snowball in popularity, while Twitter was only launched in the July of that year.
But this time around a number of candidates are using the likes of Facebook and Twitter to reach out to voters, particularly younger ones.
Chris Gledhill of PDMS believes that will be successful:
RCN wants members to 'make up their own mind' on Manx Care pay offer
Union says latest proposal is 'meaningful' but it wants to stay neutral
Five-yearly NI Fund review brought forward
Treasury minister says it will give next administration time to address changes
Pet owners heading to EU or Northern Ireland warned of passport changes
Animal Health Certificates are issued by vet practices
Friday sailings rearranged due to tidal restrictions
Two Manxman crossings affected, with one Manannan service brought forward
