Should prime minister distinguish between web site, blog and forum?

by Miha Markič 25. April 2007 14:15

In a recent publication of weekly Mladina I read an article that Slovene prime minister doesn't distinguish between web site, blog and forum (they quoted a question and his answer where it is more or less obvious). At the same time, the same prime minister is preaching that he and his government will lead Slovenia to be "one of the most successful countries of the world, on of the lighthouses of the 21st century". Leaving aside that this goal is totally ridiculous and one can't even laugh at it, one has to ask himself/herself: should a prime minister know the very very basics of the Internet? Even more so, if he is leading the country to be the most successful (whatever that means) on the earth. I think he should, we are in the 21st century after all.

IMHO he's better off admitting he doesn't distinguish bethween three of them than claiming he invented them [I know, old joke Smile]
