Obama Takes Aim at the Technology Age Gap

A new TV spot for Barack Obama takes on John McCain on the issue of technology literacy. Seems like dangerous territory, given that a lot of older people vote, and many are self-conscious about being behind the times with their tech skills. Personally, I would have liked to see Obama declare his support for digital literacy and programs designed to close the various digital divides, including the age gap, then welcome John McCain to join in on the program, since it looks like he might need a refresher course.

I had the same damned thought.  Probably from reading your book.  (Which I will finish this year.)  I was like, um, dude?  You probably don't want to go shitting on people who are intimidated by email.
