That's right people - President Barack Obama doesn't know how to work a Playstation, Xbox, or even an iPod for the matter. Speaking to some students at Hampton University, he spoke out about the distractions that technologies pose to the young generations, and the challenges the US government faces in this technological age.

"You're coming of age in a 24/7 media environment that bombards us with all kinds of content and exposes us to all kinds of arguments, some of which don't always rank all that high on the truth meter,"

"With iPods and iPads and Xboxes and PlayStations, — none of which I know how to work — information becomes a distraction, a diversion, a form of entertainment, rather than a tool of empowerment, rather than the means of emancipation.

"All of this is not only putting new pressures on you, it is putting new pressures on our country and on our democracy."

Well, I'm sure Schaff is much more qualified to talk about this than I am, but to be fair, I completely agree. Technology has virtually taken over our lives, and I think it's pretty impressive that Obama doesn't know how to work any of these devices - not that anyone cares. As long as he knows how to work the United States of America, I don't really mind.

Well yes it does, I think it's good that he hasn't wasted his time, or indulged in this modern age, he's just focused on his politics.

Even thought he has a Guinness World Record on being "The First President with regular E-Mail Access"

This makes no sense.
