Out of all things funded by the US Government, it seems the one place that uses pretty much anything other people use on the internet is NASA.
For example, NASA has a Ustream channel and it gets massive amounts of views. Why isn’t other gov’t-funded stuff using this tech? No one knows.
And now we’ve got Twitter from Mars. No, really. I’m serious. Check it out at http://www.twitter.com/MarsPhoenix.
How cool is that?
I sincerely appreciate it whenever we can literally see what our dollars are going towards. This is good stuff, folks. Enjoy it.

Using WMP I can just double click the link on my desktop without having to run it through a browser.
