Watched the President’s State of the Union address tonight. Without getting into any actual political opining, the most amazing thing for me was that I watched it streaming live on my computer, not on network TV, with the address being enhanced with support graphics. Much like watching a business presentation. And seeing Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords in attendance for her final time was very moving, no matter which side of the aisle anyone sat on.
Attached are some of the more interesting screen captures with the graphics that went along with the address. The last screen capture shows a post-address meeting with cabinet members answering questions from a live audience as well as from the three major social networks: Twitter, Facebook and Google+. Never has an administration been more accessible to, or connected with, public opinion.
