Obama's New Year's message to Iran

Over the last couple months, I've been a bit resistant to the recent new-school-ness that's been plaguing our internets. Facebook is changing, Twitter is invading even old-school rap circles , the Iphone is catching up with it's 1984 Macintosh (sup copy/paste). And for the most part, I've been anxious to embrace it. But just recently, technology won.

Below is a clip of Barack Obama addressing the people and leaders of Iran via Youtube. It's an impressive act of graciousness and one that probably can be accomplished so effortlessly and effectively in the Google (Skynet?) age.



The bitch about it is that I only found this out via Martha Stewart on Twitter. The Twat tweeted about it, which made me check out the tweeted NYTimes article, which linked me to whitehouse.gov, which I then followed to Youtube to grab the embed, to share with all of you. Mindnumbing? Yes. Helpful? Probably.



Happy Friday. Stay tuned for FBF or Random Thoughts or some other ingenius thing from Scos.

Update: Martha Stwitter was probably tweeting about Obama's appearance on Leno. Whatever.
