Obama’s Innovation Plan
Obama’s innovation plan a Christmas list for the geekerati—analysis
Barack Obama’s campaign has now released a relatively comprehensive and extremely ambitious technology document (PDF) that lays out a whole slew of general and specific proposals for doing everything from reforming the patent system to implementing a national broadband policy. In releasing this “technology and innovation plan,” Obama is the first major presidential candidate on either ticket to release a technology policy document that’s this comprehensive—some of the proposals here have been pitched by Edwards and others, but Obama is the first to put them all in one place.
