Obama has opened a website for people to participate in the transition to his new government. With him the United States will finally become comfortable with technology and the online environment. (Yes, the internet was born here, but it has not reached the depths of its citizenry like in other parts of the Western world.) Obama will prioritize universal access to broadband even in the more remote parts of the country, which will bring about equality and citizen participation in ways not seen here in the last few years.
This is very good.
Every step Obama takes seems to bring us to a better place as a nation; and he hasn't even started his new job yet! Poor Obama - the expectations are mounting... He seems so level-headed though, that I think he's going to be ok.
