I don't either, in reality. But I enjoy imagining it.

More seriously, while I'm glad he's saying "to hell with it" and keeping some means of unmediated communication with others, I understand the concerns about the advisability of the president easily using such things since everything he commits to pixels is subject to request by others.

An IM perfectly normal conversation between friends can look pretty bad when read into the record at a congressional hearing.

I am too. Goes with the whole "IT exists to make your life miserable" complex so many people have.
