Just like Al Gore, Barack Obama is now a firm believer in Web 2.0 and overall new media channel as the means to reach out to the voters. If you haven’t been paying attention, Barack Obama has promised his loyal supporters to text them before anyone else about his choice for the VP. of course, we all know it will be Joe Biden, so it’s not a surprise. But Barack is joining the likes of Rep. Paul in leveraging the new technologies to advance his agenda. Now I wish the candidates could actually address issues that people care rather than amaze us with their awareness about new technologies.
