But one thing has emerged which I am excited about - the relaunched whitehouse.gov has a blog.
That's right. This is the first blogging presidency. It's open for debate about how significant this is for the presidency itself - but it's a pretty darn good endorsment of blogging.
Bloggers are all sad individuals blogging in their bedrooms? Well, if one of those bedrooms is in the White House, perhaps people have a little rethinking to do...
Update: Daniel Bennett has a nice take on the new blog over at the Frontline Club.

I admit that I'm somewhat surprised that people physically near you are so excited about this. I guess I shouldn't be, but it seems weird to me that citizens of other countries would care so much.
I think you can thank Mr Obama's predecessor for that. For a man with no discernible foreign policy when he entered office, he sure had an impact on the world...
i think he's very technology savvy. he plays with his pda too
the reason why foreigners like President OBama is because we actually believe the hype machine has convinced us he is the second coming of jesus christ...as a Canadian my personal opinion is that Obama will do a heck of a lot better than the other guy from Texas
