If anyone doubted that Barack Obama is the techiest president ever, they can drop their crazy ideas forever. When the president and his wife, Mrs. O, met the Queen of England this week, there was the traditional exchange of gifts.
The Queen presented the Obamas a rather lame present — a photograph of herself and her awesomely un-politically correct husband the Duke of Edinburgh. The picture came in a silver frame.
And what did the prez bring for the Queen? An iPod, fully loaded with Broadway show tunes plus video clips of the Queen on her 2007 US visit. Sadly, amidst all the reports of this momentous gift-giving session the actual iPod model is not disclosed. We’d like to think that it’s the Touch, but whichever it is, one thing is clear: The Obamas put a lot more thought into their gift than did the Royals. According to the Guardian, the Queen is "delighted."
