President-Elect Obama’s first YouTube Address
Astonishing!! President-elect Barack Obama, perhaps unsurprisingly, is using the Internet as Franklin Delano Roosevelt used radio during his famous Fireside chats. The video hasn’t been seen by that many people yet, but it was only posted yesterday. I’m posting it here, hoping that those of you who see it will go to YouTube and get the code to paste it in your own blog to help spread it far and wide. Type in “Barack Obama November 15” in the search box to find the video. The content is not that remarkable, but the use of the medium is a stroke of genius. I’m mightily impressed!
I was wondering when the weekly President’s messages would finally be brought up to the 21st century! I think it’s great…a bit surprised though that it didn’t get emailed to me directly since I am on his donor list. How did you come by it?
I’m thinking that I came across it by some link on Huffington Post, but I’m not sure ….
