Meet Russian President Medvedev, Internet geek | Politics and Law - CNET News: "During an appearance at the center-left Brookings Institution, the head of the Russian Federation suggested that he and President Obama should dispense with their legions of aides and chat on iPhones through text messaging instead.
'We don't e-mail each other (but) that would be the fastest possible way to talk to each other,' said Medvedev, according to a translation. 'In this case, we could just have a couple of iPhones and we could just exchange text messages or e-mails. I am quite familiar with that, as well as President Obama, as far as I understand.' (Obama has a BlackBerry.)"
That would save a lot of money, time, and environmental impact!
"Web sites let politicians go directly to the source of news articles, reports, or other information, Medvedev said. 'We don't need our aides that much today. We can immerse ourselves into information...The time has changed. Whatever I read or President Obama reads, we always have the possibility to go online and see what is happening in reality.'"
