From Macs To PC: A White House Transition

]]> [via BuzzNewsRoom]

Obama’s team suddenly found themselves in the “dark ages” so to speak. The Obama team is known to be Mac users and as they transitioned from campaigning to become the President-Elect’s transition team to ultimately White House staff, their Mac days seem to be over.

Upon coming to work, they saw the reality that was Windows. The White House runs mainly Windows Operating systems. Windows XP and Windows 2000. This is a far cry from the elegance that is the Mac OS. But that is the government and it’s not that easy to change systems. So good luck to the Obama team.

Obamafy Yourself

]]> Jayvee over at Tech Side Up found this great Photo Booth plugin. The plugin, developed by Dubi Kaufmann takes it’s cue from the popular Obama poster created by Shepard Fairey.

Download the plugin here, the instructions are also in the link. It’s as simple as unzipping the file, dragging it to Library/Compositions/ and you have the Obama plugin ready for use.

Go forth and Obamafy!

Mac for Barack

]]> I’ve been watching the US political contest closely and I’m so glad that my personal favorite won the election. In January the US will have their first African American President, when Barack Obama takes his oath.

Today I was happy to find out that President-Elect Obama is a Mac user. Woohoo!

According to this Wired article, Obama uses a Mac. They also suspect that one of his favorite application is iChat. The article notes that he never leaves home without a webcam and that he uses this a lot to keep in touch with his family. From the picture in the article it seems like he’s using a MacBook Pro.

As long as the parties involved use Macs, I believe iChat is till the best video conferencing software for Mac. With up to 4 way video chats, it’s just amazing.

Go Obama! Go Macs!
