On Obamacasting

I distinctly remember sitting my apartment in Los Angeles sometime in 2005, scrolling through iTunes, looking for some interesting podcasts. I came across some from then Senator Barack Obama, who I only vaguely remembered as being the guy who gave the much-buzzed about speech at the Democratic National Convention in 2004.
He wasn’t the Senator from [...]

Obama and YouTube. Just brilliant.

I already posted this up on VentureBeat, but this whole idea is just so brilliant that I want to spread it even more.
President-elect Obama is going to be giving weekly video address alongside the routine weekly radio addresses to the nation. The main difference with these video addresses is that all of them will be [...]

O Hell Yeah

Obama’s #1 Fanboy: Pat Buchanan

It’s been a while since I’ve written anything of a political nature on this site, but it’s always Barack Obama that gets me to do it. He’s someone who really came on to my radar after his speech at the Democratic convention in 2004. Then I started listening to his podcasts (yes, he had them). [...]
