Barack Obama's Social Network?
You might have heard that US presidential hopeful Senator Barack Obama has his own Internet TV channel, thanks to Jeremy Allaire's Brightcove and lots of campaign money. It appears that now has his own social network.
Brilliant way to use IP communications to build your potential presidential profile. (They've taken Peter Csathy's video politicking advice to heart, whether they realize it or not.) Wonder if the Senator has Skype? What about other leaders? It's all well and good, but maybe he should use some of his campaign money to actually answer email. It's been more than two weeks since I sent an email message to his campaign headquarter via his website. I know that as a Canadian, I don't really matter votewise - or at all. But how hard is it to hire someone to set up an automated response, to acknowledge the email? His campaigners might be doing all the new media stuff correctly, but they seem to have email communications handling all wrong. Or maybe men in black helicopters are intercepting my communications. I think I'd better wrap my house in tinfoil.
