President Obama told a youth audience in Shanghai Sunday that he has never used Twitter.

More than 2.6 million people follow President Obama on Twitter -- or so they thought. The president told a youth audience in Shanghai on Sunday that he has never used Twitter.

“I have never used Twitter, but I’m an advocate of technology and not restricting Internet access," Obama said during the town hall. "My thumbs are too clumsy to type in things on the phone."

Then why own a Blackberry?

Finally! A conservative that has figured out how to use social media.

Weather or not you are a fan of Sarah Palin, this article has some great information about how people use technology, how campaigns should and do use it, and (indirectly) how Republicans don't use it.

Sarah Palin wants to friend you

(CNN) -- Sarah Palin appears on Oprah on Monday to mark the launch of her book, "Going Rogue." She'll follow up with an extensive interview with Barbara Walters, a multicity book tour and appearances on the Fox News Channel and talk radio.

She'll grab plenty of headlines. As you read about Palin's old-media tour, it's important to remember that she's also a pioneer in the political use of new social media. Not that she gets any credit.

Whole article here. Found via Smart Brief on Social Media.

Wall·e & Eve :: PC vs Mac. from @imjustcreative

I own PCs and do not own an iPod, but I'm always impressed with Apple's "I'm a Mac, I'm a PC" commercials. I find this post from I'm Just Creative very Cute.
