Part of the White House's outreach strategy is to use social networking technology.
The Whitehouse.gov blog actually links to their twitter page where people submitted all kinds of questions and responses to yesterday's proposed tax reform.
Then, they had Deputy Director of the National Economic Council Jason Furman respond to three of the questions.
You can read his responses here:

I admittedly don't watch the weekly addresses on youtube or follow the White House's facebook page, but overall I've noticed that whitehouse.gov is now brimming with useful information and updates and chances to submit your suggestions and questions. And much easier to navigate.
