Obama Speaks To The World



That's the way to do it.

With Google's release of expanded metrics for YouTube videos, Micah Sifry notes that President Obama has been successful in using the service to speak directly to people of other nations.

For instance, Obama's video message to the people of Iran in March was viewed by the most people in Iran.

As Ben Smith notes, that's "a remarkable success for public diplomacy, and an end-run around state-controlled media."
