   You forgot to add, “I have 5,000+ friends on Facebook, 3,000+ followers on Twitter and 2,500 friends on FriendFeed and all I got was this lousy t-shirt”.

   Very funny and to large extent I agree with you. I saw your twit, linked to your cartoon, got a good chuckle. Not exactly a world-changing exchange. On the other hand, w/o our virtual connectedness, I don’t think Obama would be where he is today. 800,000 My.barackobama.com members = lots of $$.

   Hugh,
   Funny stuff. I agree with you, Jo Lee. Not to make this too political or anything, but I was on a pro-Hillary blog recently where the blogger was bashing Obama for not paying too close of attention to blogs whereas Hillary has meetings with bloggers all the time. And yet she’s still losing. To me, this is a perfect example of being hyper-connected but having a sub-par message. That’s just me, though.

   This cartoon reminded me of Charles Darwin’s famous “I think” diagram/doodle:

   Hugh, that’s a brilliant observation.
