Reputation.com Blog has written extensively about how online activities can affect your personal life. It seems that meme is spreading. This video from College Humor is a perfect example of how our real world experiences are colored by our online activities. Also, as this post points out, you should never let your friends mess with your accounts.

Barack Obama was elected as the 44th President of the United States this week, and a large part of his platform was centered on the notion of change. Wasting no time, and aiming to be the first true Internet President, Barack Obama launched the official website for his transition to the White House. On Thursday www.change.gov, went online with an invitation for users to offer their ideas for the future of the country. The website further entreats readers to “Share Your Vision” via email.

There’s a countdown to the inauguration on the site, noting the number of days until January 20, 2009 when Obama will be sworn in. In terms of media, there is a blog posting that displays a YouTube video of Obama’s Tuesday victory speech in Chicago.

A quote from Obama is featured on the page, reading: “Today we begin in earnest the work of making sure that the world we leave our children is just a little bit better than the one we inhabit today.” More to the point during this time of economic woe, users can apply for jobs via the website. The site is pretty straightforward, but the degree to which Obama has attempted, with success, to harness and embrace the Internet during his campaign, and now during his transition to the White House, is impressive.

Following the historic election of Barack Obama, the postmortem for the McCain campaign can officially begin. As Washington insiders and Republican pundits look to see where they can improve in the coming years, people will point to different aspects of the McCain campaign and analyze it endlessly.

We’ve run some internal polling data through the series of tubes and think that this single moment was when McCain lost the election. It was not after the polls closed in California last night. It was when he decided to get extra dramatic during the debates.

With less than a day before Americans go to the polls, the two Presidential candidates have done their share of getting media attention. Between interviews, stump speeches and press junkets you’d think there’d be nothing more they could do to win votes. You’d think wrong.
