美國總統歐巴馬對iPod/iPad有意見

   歐巴馬總統五月10日在美國漢普敦大學畢業典禮的演講中。提出他對 iPod, iPad, Xbox, 和Playstation 的看法:
  "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 that high on the truth meter," he told the students. "And 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. So all of this is not only putting pressure on you; it's putting new pressure on our country and on our democracy."
  "你們生長在一天24小時,一星期七天的媒體環境中,但是在各種媒體疲勞瘋炸下,很多的資訊事實上並沒有很高的水平。在iPod, iPad, Xbox, Playstation上面之資訊被偏移、轉向,娛樂化,而不是激力(empowerment)的工具、也不是解放(emancipation)的手段。這不僅僅是讓你自己有壓力,也把壓力施放到國家和民主上之上
。"

  依老人看, 歐巴馬是講對了一半。媒體真的是亂七八遭,但並不是 iPod 和 iPad 的錯誤!他是真的不知道 [None of which (iPod, iPad, Xbox, Playstation) I know how to work!]
  老人看完於5月11日的半夜1點26分。感慨很深
