URBAN :: THINKING

Exploring technology, social media, social entrepreneurship & urban lifestyles

The Obama healthcare team has held meetings the Second Life virtual world to allow people who may not be able to physically attend a town hall meetings, due to health issues, to participate virtually in Second Life. This is an example of the type of out-of-the-box politics that has allowed him to keep his constituents engaged and participating in the movement.
