"Seems pretty good, with a focus on Obama's use of online social networking. It makes me feel like I know more about online social networking strategy than I think I do. Also, EVERYONE fetishizes the Obama campaign, so it'd be good to see what's up with it..."
"In "Barack, Inc.", Barry Libert and Rick Faulk focus on the strategies that worked so well during the presidential campaign, and that can be applied to the business world in general. Topics discussed are the use of social technologies, Obama's calm and collected leadership style, the overall concept of change, and so on.
"Barack, Inc." is an easy and fast read - a book that you can finish in one afternoon. I think the concepts and lessons described in the book are definitely useful, and important for anyone wishing to be a business leader. I also see this book being used in business schools in the future. However, the information is redundant and unless you haven't watched any TV, listened to the radio or browsed the internet in the last 2 years, you already know everything the authors write about. I am a big supporter of Obama, but this book feels like an attempt by the authors to cash in on his victory."
"One third of this already short book was made up of notes. The authors did not include anything that someone who read the newspapers or just generally followed the Obama campaign wouldn't already know. If you had not paid attention at all or don't know ANYTHING about social media, it might be worth checking out. Otherwise, it's a very, very short read with not much useful information."
