If you took part in Thursday’s live online presidential town-hall meeting, you had the chance to submit your questions to President Obama via text or video. Then you got to vote on the popularity of the questions, effectively ranking them for the president’s staff to consider. So some might think somebody was blowing smoke when it turned out that the four most popular questions under the “financial stability” category had to do with the legalization of marijuana. At least President Obama may have thought so.
The technology used was lacking. They should have tried Virtual Town Hall from Hexa2 - real audio, video and text interaction with a moderator to control it. Not expensive at all.
