Great take on the current net neutrality legislation question. It's TOUGH to be "against net neutrality". Does that language just feel good? What an amazing job of positioning the role of the government. Now, I am still digesting brilliant opinions on ALL sides of this very vexing issue...but this post gives a simple example of what one might be "against neutrality" or rather "Against the radical government intervention in what's right and wrong on the web". We shall see.

Reading more and more of Jose's stuff on Huffpost. Excellent perspective that MUST be listened to. No matter our politics...we agree on the tech/politics intersection. Here's a quote.

"Because of the one-way nature of television, leaders have been trained to talk down to their constituents. But because of the two-way street that is the Internet, politicians must learn how to listen and engage the very people they're accountable for. Many pols have adapted, at least in the superficial sense. They blog. They create YouTube channels and Facebook fan pages. They drop Twitter in almost every other paragraph to sound and seem like they "get it.""

This is a great piece on what candidates should do with tech in their campaigns. We struggle to convince candidates every day that tech is not something that we just "add on" to the "real stuff". It's a first step for us and should be treated as such.

This article states the very interesting current status of today's younger workers and up and comers. It's not good enough to sit around and complain that you can't "reach this voting block" and disregard it. Imagine if someone said that about you...you 50+ year old! It won't be long before the youngest generations are the majority of the voting block. When they decide to engage (BHO), it's pretty much their game. Learn don't shut down. Engage...don't shout. Enjoy what this generation brings to the table as it's obviously very different than what even we (me) Gen X'ers brought not so long ago.
