Congratulations President Obama

Could not be happier that we have elected Barack Obama as President of the United States.  I do believe that this change will make a huge difference, both to people in the US and for the perception of the US government around the world.  I am excited to see what happens over the next four years.

I watched tonight’s events unfold online.  I participated in discussions on a number of different social sites, and watched the news unfold live online.  Quite amazing to watch the thoughts of the world scroll by on Twitter, and see all the vote counts updating live on a variety of sites.  I did watch CNN, and they did a great job, but I really enjoyed all of the online coverage.  I doubt I will even need a TV for the election in four years.

It’s a whole new world.
