I hear he is going to appoint a technology tsar (a CTO or Chief Technology
Officer) as part of his cabinet who will be looking into many aspects of
technology, government, net neutrality, etc.

I would not be looking for too much at the change.gov site until that person
is in place.

call off the celebrations, obama's http://change.gov/ has been totally  
gutted. nothing left there except platitudes. ah well.

the technology platform is "not found", see:
http://change.gov/agenda/technology/

probably politically wise to be more cautious with promises, but...
