Inauguration on Twitter
If you will be on Twitter today, here are a few Twitter accounts worth following:
I am not sure if Twitter is going to be able to handle the slew of tweets people live-tweeting from DC and the rest of us tweeting about this and the rest. I really don’t want to see the fail whale today!
Enjoy watching this historical event! 🙂

I have great hopes for Obama. I supported him in the election and I think he was the best choice even though I am a registered Republican. I hope the current administration hasn’t screwed up this country and world so bad that anyone in the job will be unsuccessful.
We are in for some hard times and I think Obama has the character to get us through.
Thank You

We were able to watch most of it on tv until I had to leave to take my little brother to school – from there we listened to the radio! It’s nice to know that there’s places online you can watch stuff though – I wonder if anybody watched it from their phones?
It certainly was a historic and magnificent event, it’s actually the first one I ever actually watched.
I’ve got to say I wondered if there was any real substance behind the hype, but the first few days of his presidency have set an impressive tone. I’m beginning to believe.
I have great hopes for Obama. I supported him in the election and I think he was the best choice.
i didn’t watch obama inauguration because i am being not in front of television or internet.
whereas i want to see it. 🙁

It was an unbelievable and life -changing speech. I believe Obama will set a barrier for which every president that will come after will have to climb over and above.
