# I stand in awe… Obama Wins!

Wow… tonight I went into downtown Chicago for the Barack Obama Rally. There was such beauty in what I saw. Thousands upon thousands of people poured into downtown Chicago in support of Obama. People of all ethnicities, social, and economic classes. The sight of that kind of unity alone was moving. I also took notice of the impact of technology on this election. I heard the news of the win as a watched a streaming broadcast of MSN using SkyFire on my mobile phone.
I’ll write more shortly – Obama *just* took the stage.
