Obama To Agencies: Optimize Web Content For Mobile
CWmike writes "President Barack Obama has ordered all major government agencies to make two key services available on mobile phones within a year, in an effort to embrace a growing trend toward Web surfing on mobile devices. Obama, in a directive issued Wednesday, also ordered federal agencies to create websites to report on their mobile progress. The websites are due within 90 days. Innovators in the private sector and the government have used the Internet and powerful computers to improve customer service, but 'it is time for the federal government to do more,' Obama said in the memo. 'For far too long, the American people have been forced to navigate a labyrinth of information across different government programs in order to find the services they need.'"
He definitely cares about himself first. He care about getting reelected. He wants the younger generation vote. The younger generation is more likely to use smart phones. Obama is probable thinking if I do something that the younger people like/want they will vote for me.
I doubt Obama is reading slashdot but anyway...
It is the economy! Work on that first!
I don't think most of us hate Obama. Heck, I think most of us would likely enjoy his company for a couple of beers...he seems like a nice guy.
He just makes for a LOUSY president.
While I like him as a guy...I'd vote for a small soap dish over him in the upcoming election. Anybody but Obama.
Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.........
