Adhering to its reputation as the first digital campaign, President-elect Barack Obama's team took to the Web for another innovation this weekend -- the first presidential YouTube address. Obama recorded a video version of the weekly Democratic radio address that was posted on the popular Internet video site Saturday, a trend his advisers say will continue once he enters the White House in January. "This is just one of many ways that President-elect Obama will communicate directly with the American people and make the White House and the political process more transparent," a press release said.
On the day that leaders of the Group of 20 nations convened in Washington for a summit on the global economic crisis, Obama used his video to discuss the economic situation here at home. "Make no mistake: This is the greatest economic challenge of our times," the president-elect told viewers and listeners. But he also expressed confidence that the country can recover. "I know that we can steer ourselves out of this crisis -- because here in America we always rise to the moment, no matter how hard. And I am more hopeful than ever that America will rise once again."

This is pretty good way to communicate with American people. Many American people use youtube for watching various video because this is the best internet video network. And this initiation by Barak Obama is good to make administration transparent. Thanks for sharing the great news. iPhone App Development
