No matter what part of the world you’re from, politicians are in your life. The whole world is hoping that the US elect a decent president this time around. I confess that I don’t know a lot about McCain or Obama, but from what I’ve seen in the media, Obama seems the more reasonable. Yet I know nothing about his thoughts or comments on issues that I’m concerned about. Sure you can search news stories, but you often come up with a lot of irrelivancies, so I was really pleased to stumble across a great new toy from Google.

“In Quotes” is a really simple search facility that will help you find out exactly what any politician has been saying about an issue you’re worried about. Simply select your region (US, UK etc) and select your politicians. Currently, the US default is unsuprisingly John McCain and Barack Obama. Then you can enter any keyword you wish and it will bring up any quotes from the politician with that keyword. Cool huh? Go play!
