The President came to our house for dinner tonight.
Marissa Mayer is a well know face at Google… and little doubt the prettiest!
She just tweeted: “The President came to our house for dinner tonight. It was absolutely surreal!”, pointing a link to the narration of this event by SF Gate.
You can read there that, among other things, Obama said he remembered his first visit to Google years ago, where he first met Mayer, and said “it spoke to the….American idea, that if we’re innovating, if people have the tools to let their imaginations run, then there’s nothing we can’t do in this country.”
It immediately struck me that reversing this sentence would accurately depict the French behavior about our DMP (the public Personal Medical Record): “it speaks to the….Ministry of health idea, that if we keep being conservative, if we make sure people cannot let their imaginations run, then there’s nothing we can do in this country.”
Ok, that’s quite easy and smart people can now guess that DMP will never exist and that we have to compete against it. Even if Obama’s Yes We Can is largely free speech, we still are missing him here!
