XBox Inauguration

So today I *finally* got around to watching President Obama’s Inauguration Address…on XBox Live. (My company isn’t employee focused enough to have let us watch the proceedings live. And then one thing led to another and here it is almost a week later before I had a chance to watch.)

This isn’t a political blog and really, I’m not a very political person, so I’m just going to set aside the content of the address (ok, I’ll slip in that I thought it was well written and quite inspiring), but just stop and think about this for a moment. I’m watching a historic event on my gaming console. That kinda blows my mind.

And in my RSS reader, snuggled between MMO blogs and tech blogs, is my Whitehouse.gov feed. The Whitehouse has a blog. How cool is that?
