The New White House Website!!!!

While the outgoing George Dubbya was enjoying his last hour as President, change was occurring at the White House. At 11am today, Inauguration Day, the White house website got a makeover. Out went to old, boring Bush site and in came an advanced and good-looking site.

The new Obama White House website is easy to navigate and full of information about the new administration's policies and plans, as well as a blog and weekly video addresses. The hope is that the site will make government more transparent, allowing the general public to communicate to and participate in their government.

Personally, I am going to love the weekly video addresses. Now I will be able to hear what he has to say without media interpretation. I am so excited! Day one of the presidency: Success

Michelle Obama's Inaguration Dress: they call her mellow yellow

Michelle Obama made a splash in the fashin world today. The First Lady wore a yellow dress and matching overcoat made by Cuban-born Isabel Toledo with a crystal necklace and green leather gloves and shoes.

Yellow, which symbolizes optimism, was a bold choice but Michelle made it work and I think it went well with the overall theme for the day. Today the minute I stepped out into the sun I felt refreshed and optimistic. I don't know if that feeling was because of Barack's swearing in or his wife's standout dress - but either way, I like it.
