No need for iPad: Obama has human apps


This is FUN to read!

Just a thought:
As suggested in Here Comes Everybody by Shirky, and Hot, Flat, and Crowded by Thomas Friedman, the power of Internet is expanding so rapidly that some political traditions are being challenged. But I don't think the Internet and technology can cause mainstream change on political stage. Internet is more of a means of how people approach each other, how people exchange feedback, and how people have a greater access to the authority. However, I think executives and authoritative offices tend to preserve traditions in order to keep their work formal and trustworthy. They would not make everything internet-based, e-documents, e-meetings, e-signatures, and e-everything will never dominate an executive's office and they have no way to alter many of the old traditions.
