President Obama has something to share with you

The White House wants to share. Or more precisely, they'd like you to share.

Our executive branch recently launched White House Shareables, a new section on www.whitehouse.gov that makes it easy to share President Obama's ideas with your circle of friends.

This is a great concept for every organization or business: Aggregate all your key messages in one place and make them easily shareable via social media.

The White House's latest entry is "What Obamacare Means for You" featuring a "white board" video that explains the Affordable Care Act. The page also includes links to key information and promotes the hashtag #getcovered, to help make spreading the word a little easier (and a lot more trackable).

Topics cover all the usual suspects — the economy, education, immigration, energy and the environment and much more on health care. There's even a "grab bag" of stuff that doesn't fit nicely into a single category. There are videos, articles and infographics galore — indeed, a grab bag of shareable goodies.

 

Starting October 1st, you can go to http://www.healthcare.gov and use the new Health Insurance Marketplace to see all of the health plans available in your area and sign up for the one that fits your needs and budget.
