Obama administration rolls out 'White House 2.0′
Friday, May 1, 2009
From CNN Associate Producer Martina Stewart
The White House now has a page on the popular social networking site Facebook.
"Today the White House is taking steps to expand how the administration is communicating with the public," the White House blog says.

The blog post contains links to the White House's pages on Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, Flickr, Vimeo, YouTube, and iTunes.
"The WhiteHouse blog will power a lot of the content in these networks," the blog post explains, "but we're looking forward to hearing from our fans, friends and followers."
"We want to make the White House more open and accessible for the American people," Obama spokesman Nick Shapiro said earlier this week about the administration's new official Flickr photostream. Making official images available on the photo sharing site "is just one way we are using the Internet and new media technology to accomplish that."
During the White House race, Obama's campaign pioneered extensive use of social networking technologies that helped power him into the Oval Office.
