I'mkinda disappointed Google CEO Eric Schmidt really won't be thecountry's first ever chief tech officer after all. Despite rumors and(fairly reasonable) speculation he was not-so-subtly campaigning for the position (and Obama), yesterday he definitively said that he wouldn't take the position if offered:
"Ilove working at Google and I'm very happy to stay at Google, so theanswer is no." His experience and knowledge of all kinds of tech—he'sreally into green energy, for instance—made him one of my personalfavorite choices for the position. And Google mojo is a plug by itself.So who do you want whispering in the president-elect's ear about newsolar power technologies, the effect of YouPorn HD on our nation'sbroadband infrastructure and revamping kids' education to make themmore prepared in a world that revolves around bits as much as bullets?
