Sun, 25 Jan 2009 15:13:58 +0000 http://behindthescenes.blogs.cnn.com/?p=115#comment-5091 Hellow CNN and Friends, It has been a wonderful and historical happenings I have nver expected. But It took place. It is unforgateble. I started watching the whole day from the morning to the last minute after inaugration. I started att CET 11.00 - 02.00 the second day (20/1 - 21/1/2009) Now we hope that Pres Obama keeps his campaigning promises. We hope he does not help dictator and murdereres in the name of alliance on war against terrorism. Terrorism cannot be fought by supporting dictators. Democracy and the rule of law is the best weapons against terror. The state Dept must be cleaned from corruption and lobbyists who contribute more hell like they do in Somalia and Ethiopia. State Dept is responsible for the hell in Somalia and Ethiopia. Hellow CNN and Friends,

A day bfore the inauguration I sent a group mail t oalmost 900 ppl in my FB Obama group http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=23732663792 At 11.30 pm onwards until 4.30 am Sri Lankan time I was glued to it and I really liked the multiple camera streaming option where we could kind of choose which streaming we wanted to watch from time to time. It was a great job by CNN and FB and I though another cool feature was where you could see what each of the non-friend members watching are updating through their status and you felt like you are part of a global community sitting in one place and watching the inuaguration.
