Search engine Google and social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter have set up special pages to help web users make sense of the UK elections.
Last night's debate involving the leaders of the three major parties attracted a major following online with web users reacting live to the performance of the speakers.
Facebook set up a special dial that could be turned red or green as people watched, it then recorded the results on a graph.
Meanwhile Google has created a dedicated election page that monitors the parties performances based on the amount and types of searches they generate.
Web users are also being encouraged to submit questions to politicians through video sharing website YouTube.
