Last month, the washingtonpost.com's former executive editor, Jim Brady, was at Samara
talking about the various ways that news organization works to cover politics and public policy in a changing media environment.
In addition to the experiments
he highlighted, it's worth checking out their
POTUS-tracker, which uses the information from Obama's schedule to show how he's spending his time, with whom and where, as well as details on the what (where available).
Issue-wise, he spent the most time on foreign policy, the economy and the catch-all "government-politics" category so far this year. VP Joe Biden is the most frequent Obama
meeting attendee, followed by his wife and Hillary Clinton.

Anyone want to wager a bet on what our PM's summary would look like?
