This is a great video conduced by Robert Scoble.  Nice to hear someone speak out being honest and frank and knows what technology is.  Kind of funny are the remarks that Mr.McCain is “aware” of the Internet, which makes a statement of the vast difference between the connected and disconnected today. 

One of the topics discussed is the FCC and where broadband and other areas are going, communication as well as security is everything to healthcare today, so indirectly we are all impacted here.  Nice to hear a congress woman who knows what a “server” is.  She discusses how paper bound many areas of the government and Congress is.  She likes gadgets too. 

Recently with all the non-tech minded people in office, this is nice to hear from a Congress woman who’s making the effort to be informed and understands data security and what has and needs to be done.  Especially interesting were the remarks about Homeland Security on an issue.  Very much worth watching and anohter great job from Robert Scoble.  BD 

You know you’re meeting a geeky politician when the first thing out of Zoe Lofgren’s (D-CA) mouth is how Google’s Android is going to be more exciting than Apple’s iPhone. Of course you’d expect no less from a Congresswoman from Silicon Valley. Here we talk about a range of topics from cell phones to immigration.
