Another web resume

Here is another web based resume - "Web Resume"

Given the current economy there is a large deal of competition for every job out there. Historically people created a paper resume containing work experience, education etc and conducted face to face interviews to find work. Now, with new technology and increased competition people are

1. Using the web to find jobs
2. Creating web based resumes/portfolios (like the above and like Vanity Clair)
3. Creating video resumes
4. More

The above resume is simply a linked version of a paper resume. It's not really doing much that a paper resume can't do on it's own.

Questions

1. What could be done with the web based resume that would make it more valuable/different from a paper based resume.
2. What would you include in your web based resume?
3. What is your opinion of the web based resume linked above?

Whitehouse

Review this site - http://www.whitehouse.gov/

Regardless of politics, most people would agree that the current president is the most tech savvy we've had. He is the first to have a computer on the oval office desk, the first to carry a cell phone (albeit it only connects to about 40 people), this administration is the first to have a chief technology officer. Utilizing Facebook, YouTube, blogs and numerous websites this administration communicates with us.

Review Whitehouse.gov ...

Be serious and only provide APPROPRIATE comments.

1. Is it easy to use?
2. Does it look professional?
3. IGNORING POLITICS - How would you rate this site.
4. How quickly can you find this administration's views on "Net Neutrality or the 'Open Web'"?
5. If you were president how would you communicate with the people of the United States?
