There’s been plenty of attention paid to the news that the website for President-Elect Obama’s transition team, Change.gov has been placed under a Creative Commons license , allowing others to make use of the content with attribution. However, I’m a bit hard pressed to see how this actually is a big deal. The whole thing is made a bit odd by the fact that federal government ...... [Show More]
There has been a lot of talk about President-elect Barack Obama’s transition Web site www.change.gov. Much of the discussion has been positiv e and some party negative . There is no doubt that the site sets the bar high and one could argue gives a sneak peak into what we may see from an Obama administration, but it also seems to try and walk a tight rope.......

This is very encouraging:
In what can only be seen as a major coup for those of us who have been hoping that the Obama Administration would embrace a saner and more sensible thinking on questions of copyright than is the norm in Washington, Change.gov has swapped a strict copyright [...]...... [Show More]

“Does the Internet Matter?”: That’s the title of a new report out from Temple University’s Institute for Business and Information Technology. Making use of some techpresident data, Temple’s Sunil Wattal, David Schuff, and Munir Mandviwalla considered how social media in particular shaped the ‘08 presidential primaries. Their conclusion? While YouTube and MySpace...... [Show More]
Politico has this story about new media in the Obama administration. “Barack Obama’s use of the Internet to communicate with the American public and the world will have a larger impact on the political media ecology than the declaration that the world was round had on the shipping industry in 1492,” said Andrew Rasiej, founder of techpresident.com and Personal Democracy Forum.......

Allison Fine throws some common sense on the fire in assessing post-election “cro wdsourcing change” efforts. I’m going to shamelessly quote it at length because the message is worth amplifying and repeating.
Oh, the sacrilege of criticizing well meaning crowd sourcing!!

Everyone is honored and excited today that Change.gov , the website of President Elect Barack Obama, has turned on IntenseDebate comments to discuss things like health care .
Micah Sifry has an excellent write up of the topic .
Imagine what happens if those numbers–on not just any “centralized site” but the one that symbolically and perhaps literally has the attention of...... [Show More]
Taking his efforts to communicate directly with the American people to the obvious next level -- and, more importantly, to get our input -- President-elect Obama’s transition website ( Change.gov ) has created an interactive feature where citizens are asked for their feedback on issues.
The first question is, " What worries you most about the healthcare system in ou...... [Show More]
So, I discussed White House communications today on NECN - including whether Barack Obama should have a Blackberry. He really wants one. He even told Barbara Walters that. But it’s still up in the air because of security and legal concerns.
Maybe I’m slow, but I don’t quite get it. It’s easy to save every “I...... [Show More]
I know this because Barack Obama told me so .
Adding : in general, I’ve been happy to give the POTUS-Elect broad leeway on appointments, and been pleased for the most part with the decisions made. It’s really irritating, in general, to hear the cries of foul from the left every time Barack Obama doesn’t personally pick "THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT PERSON FOR MY CRITIC...... [Show More]
techpresident meldet , dass Change.gov jetzt auch Kommentare zulsst.
Change.gov ist die offizielle Website des Designierten US-Prsidenten Barack Obama. Bisher war es dort nur mglich, Texte zu lesen oder Bewerbungen abzugeben - also nicht wirklich interaktiv und nicht der neue Politikstil, den Obama versprochen hatte. Aber jetzt ist es soweit: Die Diskussion startet mit der Gesundheit spoli..... . [Show More]

Obama przynosi zmianę. To będzie pierwszy prezydent, który faktycznie używa internetu. Ma (a może miał?) BlackBerry i Macbooka Pro . Od tego pierwszego jest podobno uzależniony. Blogerzy z za oceanu twierdzą, że zwyciężył bo lepiej radził sobie z używaniem web 2.0 podczas kampanii . Bo głosy które przeważyły to głosy pokolenia MySpace, Facebook i Youtube.
