I live in one of the most political — perhaps the most political — areas in the world: Washington, D.C. I hate politics; I especially hate national politicians.
All too many politicians are amoral or immoral. They don’t have the morality of normal Americans and they don’t realize their failings or they know but they don’t care. As Mark Twain said in Pudd’nhead Wilson, “It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly native American criminal class except Congress.”
What does this have to do with wireless data? Microblogging. More people are posting microblogs — short comments — from their cellular phones. I wrote about the ramifications of microblogging in my latest weekly “Thinkernet” mobile communications column in CMP’s “Internet Evolution” (see below).
Today I see The New York Times published an article about microblogging in the current Presidential campaigns.
