Our fellow mediabistro bloggers, TVNewser, FishbowlNY and FishbowlDC are all reporting this week from the Democratic National Convention in Denver, Colorado. Chances are many other reporters you may be trying to pitch this week are as well.

TVNewser reports on a first ever meeting between spokespeople from the rival campaigns, "It was their first joint appearance, but it wasn't even on TV. Obama spokesperson Bill Burton and McCain spokesperson Tucker Bounds appeared together for an impromptu interview with Greta Van Susteren on the FOXNews.com's The Strategy Room."

In other convention related news, Nielsen sent out a press release proclaiming Obama's VP announcement by text message was, "the single largest mobile marketing event in the U.S. to date," and "one of the most successful brand engagements using mobile media..." By Nielsen's tally, the text reached a total of 2.9 million people. Is mobile marketing finally here en-masse?
