It seems that everyone is really excited about this whole President 2.0 idea. Facebook, MTV, and the State Department are having a conference about using social networking to fight terrorism, there is a website devoted to Michelle Obama’s outfits, and Change.org, not to be confused with the Obama transition team’s change.gov, has launched a campaign [...]

We have been accused of “over sharing” here at pinko on many, many occasions. It’s high time we took it to the next level. After some serious nudging from PinkoErik, we’ve signed up for twitter. Now you can “follow us” or whatever while we tweet. Tweet? Seriously? Am I saying that right? We’re not exactly [...]

If you missed it, Brian Schweitzer, the current governor of Montana, gave one hell of a speech last night at the Democratic National Convention. Judging by the fact that it was only broadcast on C-SPAN, you probably did miss it. Luckily we have the video. Thank god for the inter-tubes! (via TNR) Update: The big [...]

CNN is reporting that Scarlett Johansson has been personally emailing with Barack Obama about, among other things, the media’s obsession with trivial gossip. Just take a minute to let that all sink in…

It’s a pretty understandable urge: You move, and once you’re settled in you want to know everything there is to know about your new block. Were there killings? Were those killings carnal and/or grisly? Is there a sure-sign-of-gentrification-beer-garden opening on the corner? Were there killings (grisly or carnal) AT the beer garden on the corner? [...]

But, you might want to go pick up a copy of Micro$oft Office Ultimate here ($ = angry sarcasm nerd points). It’s only $60, kindly reduced from its original price: $5423.54. But, like all that comes from Papa Gates, there are two catches: 1. You have to have a .edu address. 2. You may have [...]

MoveOn.org took a note from Barack Obama’s positive style and requested that all submissions to their Obama in :30 competition be “positive ads about Barack Obama, not attack ads about others.” But what fun is that?

[Editors Note: Ian wrote this on Thursday. Because I'm slow, and probably because I'm gay, I just got to posting it today, two days after the day he refers to.

Ok, I’m pretty deep in the whole Obamania thing at this point, but I have to admit this video makes me just a little uncomfortable. And yes, that is Ugly Betty’s own Eric Mabius under all that beard. I think Obama should get to be president based purely on Mabius’ performance as the [...]
