Quick Hits -- January 10th: Renew America Together, Generations, and more

A few things to check out this evening...

• Barack Obama has created an online community, Renew America Together, linking those serving their respective communities.
• Winograd and Hais give their take on Renew America Together, calling it a "down payment to Millennials."
• McClatchy Newspapers looks at whether the torch has been passed again with Obama's victory.
• Many commentators are arguing that the GOP needs to step up their use of technology to court the youth vote. Spurning C-SPAN isn't a good start.
• Obama, meanwhile, won't let go of his BlackBerry.
• Want a job with the Obama administration? An ex-Clinton appointee gives you some tips.
• The Times profiles Pittsburgh's resurgence after it experienced its own recession a few decades ahead of the rest of the country.
• Campus Progress interviews Kathy Dahlkemper, a freshman Democrat from Pennsylania's Third District, who recently defeated Republican incumbent Phil English. Dahlkemper talks about youth involvement and has a pretty interesting story (I live in the Third District and had an opportunity to talk with Dahlkemper at one of the college meetings she references -- a good person for this district and for young people).
• mcjoan at DailyKos examines the national parks as an opportunity for job creation, a la the Civilian Conservation Corps in the '30s.
• Blagojevich will swear in the Illinois State Senate, which will then promptly put the governor on trial. What great political theater, eh?
