My hope is that most people by now have seen the State of the Union Address given by President Obama on Tuesday or at least some of it. That said, regardless if you have or have not, I would recommend you view it with the nifty "PowerPoint" graphics along side by watching it from the official www.whitehouse.gov website.

I am sure there will be more on this topic posted soon...in the meantime, please lets us know what your thoughts on the address or this great new site.
