I was lucky enough to sit right behind the President on stage in Raleigh yesterday. I had never seen a US President in person before, it was a great experience. Politics aside, it is truly amazing to look the President in the eye as he speaks. His followers are so excited to see him, he really is a rock star, very iconic.
Whether he can sustain good policy for our country or not, he will no doubt always be remembered for his charisma and charm as a speaker.
When I first arrived there was a gal in line that I stood next to with a Blackberry. She was talking to her friend and she said "this device has truly transformed my life" Her friend soon after took a phone call herself. I could not help but now ask her about the phone and why she said that. She said her family never believed she would actually use it. But she talked about Internet access, e-mail, the ease of texting, doing business on the run.
I love hearing those comments. Ordinary people using technology to make life easier. That is what Blackberries or technology in general are designed to do.
Welcome to the Future
