Currently on the social media bandwagon [1], purple pundit Jeff Pulver may want to create a new Facebook category of "VON Alumni heading for the White House." While Pulver met Barack Obama at a fundraiser, he's likely to have less access than one-time VON keynoter and Obama adviser/contributor/transition team leader Reed Hundt, frequent VON speaker and FCC Chairman short-list member Blair Levin, and VON speaker/VON Magazine columnist Kevin Werbach. 

In a blog note posted on November 14, Werbach said he had been named "co-lead of the FCC agency review team for the Obama-Biden Transition." He previously served as Counsel for New Technology Policy at the Federal Communications Commission from 1994-1998.
