The inauguration of President Barak Obama promises to be a good thing for the technology industry. The Obama campaign was widely praised for its embrace of technology and how they used it to interact with their supporters.
Moments after our new President was sworn in, I visited The White House web site and sure enough, there was a new, polished and robust web site waiting. Just as the campaign before it, the new Administration seems poised to leverage technology to do its work. Right on the home page there was a link to sign up for updates. I couldn't resist and signed right up. It will be interesting to see how they use this.
I am hopeful that this will be an exciting 4 years and possibly more, for those of us who live in the world of technology. I hope that it will go well beyond our unique industry and touch most, if not all American's and help make our lives far better than they have been. Time will tell. I wish the new Administration the very best.
