Obama reportedly ”tweeted“ regularly throughout the campaign using his BlackBerry smartphone

The campaign even created an application for the Apple iPhone that allowed Obama supporters to prioritise their contacts by key battleground states so they could make calls and encourage their friends to vote Democrat.

I saw a demo off this app, very innovative...

[ Obama has made it clear he supports Net neutrality. His technology agenda states that a “key reason the Internet has been such a success is because it is the most open network in history. It needs to stay that way.” ]

Sounds good to me The incentive to increase speeds will always be there regardless.

He'd answer saying that he has always preferred blueberries.

Hope that Obama also will bring in some tougher anti-spam laws to keep them spammers running...

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

Well, at least he'll be more open to doing something like that because he knows what it is.

IIRC, McCain stated he's never used a PC.

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

never? .... sheesh, good thing he lost then.

It's due to people like McCain at The Pentagon that made it easy for Gary McKinnon to hack their PC's.

Never used a PC!

There are some really good ideas in his political agenda on change.gov:
http://www.change.gov/agenda/

Some of those economic agendas make for sound advice we could use here.

Well, try and imagine Jacob Zuma with a blackberry or even just a PC. Now that's hard to imagine

It's just a pity our guavamunt can't use PCs either, and even if someone explained the policies suggested there, they'd still not implement them because it may actually benefit everyone and not themselves.

Sorry, Obama is okay I suppose, but think he is in over his head. The expectation's built and what he can realistically deliver dont weigh up all that well.
