: According to a NYTIMES article, by JannyScott, when Obama arrived in the Illinois Senate as a brand new senator, he was greeted with taunts, name calling by his African American colleagues. Obama's African American colleagues, held it against him, that he was a graduate of Harvard and that he was of mixed race, he wasn't black enough. They said so to his face. It got so bad, that a shoving match ensued between Obama and one of the principal agitators. Stanley Crouch piece in the NY Daily News "Obama isn't black like me illustrates the hostility that African Americans in positions of power and influence within our society had towards Obama. What about Jesse Jackson's rude comment, "I want to cut his nuts off"? Jesse Jackson may have been crying when Obama finally made it, but were those tears of joy or rage, because he knows he could never get it. Obama is not an African American in the traditional sense. There is no Public School in any ghetto that he attended anywhere in the urban centers of the USA. His formative years were spent attending school in Indonesia. He speaks well, eloquently, in perfect command of the English language. African Americans are coming out of the woodwork, rallying around the Obama flagpole, now, but a lot of them didn't do so in the beginning. He owes more to the whites in the Senate that were his friends than the blacks that turned their backs on him. I like respect and like Obama a lot. I have tremendous respect, admiration for Barack Hussein Obama. I have contempt for those African Americans that in their own words "gave Obama hell" when he first arrived in the Illinois Senate, because he wasn't black enough, in their opinion. They are jumping all over him now, that he won. 1

: "This growth makes sense given the rush of new users these companies must be experiencing. It's not just growing hype, either. The combination of collaboration, intelligence gathering and ease of use make micro-messaging or micro-blogging a compelling addition to millions of peoples' work and personal lives."

: "One of my sources on the inside told me that it was some of the people who were on Dean's 2004 campaign team that came in and built upon what they knew, and that doesn't surprise me in the least. Not only did they learn the power of the infamous "Dean Scream" hitting YouTube, but they learned the power of fundraising and brought that to the Obama campaign, improved on it and turned it into a finely tuned machine. So much so that the majority of Obama's donations came from donors giving $200 and under.So what kind of technology did Obama use? Let's take a quick, deep look at what was implemented." 32

: 20% market is great. It's just a shame I still need to open Internet Explorer to watch FLASH videos. I'll be discontinuing ANY use of FF if it's not fixed shortly which makes me wonder just how much market share they'll give back to IE with this continued issue.
