Comments on: Lifestreaming in Obamaland

The technologies that helped Obama reach the White House are going to make the president-elect's life more transparent and scrutinized than any previous White House occupant.

$48 for 2 pies and 3 sandwiches? Is food that expensive in the US?

[palmerfamily_8]

Yes! One pie most likely cost him $10 to $15 dollars.

Obama transparent? Now that is change I can believe in! It would be welcome after the election of the biggest enigma ever. And as the recent Zogby poll shows, the few facts which were known about Obama were not known by those who voted for him. Obama puts out a seven page questionnaire for those who wish to work for him, but Obama's own resume and CV would not fill seven pages, and how many of those 63 questions do we know the answers to for Obama?

Too bad those questions were almost entirely tabloid chum.

47% of voters did not vote for Obama...and Washington is a difficult place to change. Just ask the Clintons from Arkansas. But 1992 is not 2008. Washington hasn't changed much, but Obama idealistically thinks he can do something significant like every president-elect. He is surrounding himself with experienced Washington hands...so he gets that his honeymoon will be very short. But he will continue to go directly to people and his grass roots organizing via the Web. Some would call it a digital propaganda machine...but we'll have to see just what he can accomplish, and whether he can get more people on his side. The challenges as he take office are extremely daunting.
