Barack Obama has given your speech. Now have your say: How did his words strike you?

With the recession taking a heavy toll on the magazine industry, it's nice to see that we aren't the only ones looking for a silver lining: "During the luxury boom, I grew accustomed to those hernia-busting periodicals that clogged my mail slot every month," writes Simon Doonan in his weekly Observer column. "Now, as I look for stuff to be glad about, I'm loving the fact that you can once again swat a fly or a cockroach with a folded fashion magazine." We can't picture too many cockroaches scurrying around the immaculate apartment Doonan shares with Jonathan Adler, but we get the point. And we couldn't agree more. [NYO]

At noon on the dot, WhiteHouse.gov cut over from George W. Bush's legacy site to Barack Obama's Change.gov. The first blog post of the Obama Administration promises "communication," "transparency," and "participation." It does not allow comments.

The third high-profile sale at Sundance — and perhaps the most foregone conclusion in town — occurred late Monday when Magnolia Pictures picked up the bromance-gone-batshit Humpday.

Officially, Barack Hussein Obama became the 44th President of the United States at noon while Yo-Yo Ma played. But with his solemn oath, we are in his hands.

We've heard that in the real world, everyone is talking about some inauguration thing right now? Must be fun! Over here at Sundance, however, the conversations are just as cracked as they've ever been:

Because 18 million New Yorkers are ordering lunch at the same time as you. ORDER NOW. Only at participating SUBWAY® restaurants in NYC.

On all the liberal conspiracy networks — CNN, MSNBC, etc. — the inauguration is the most momentous event ever. History! For those who hate hope, Fox News is on the air. Compare after the jump.

One more member of the Madoff family who probably won't be attending the next family reunion: Bernie Madoff's nephew, Charles Wiener, who is now selling his ranch-style home in Centerport for $1.4 million. Wiener, whose mother Sondra is Bernie's sister, purchased the home with his wife Carolyn in 2002 for $800,000. Now that Charles is unemployed—he worked for his uncle's investment firm as director of administration—and he's experienced a "devastating financial loss," he's been forced to sell the home. He didn't indicate where the couple is planning to move next. Given Wiener's mother was a victim, too, and he described his uncle to the Post as "rotten," we'll assume crashing at 133 East 64th Street isn't an option. Photos of the home after the jump.

Are you sick of your friends who can't stop talking about the inauguration? Then you're really going to hate Twitter today. A special edition of the Twitterati to catch up with this morning's chattiness:

Barack Obama is your new President, and we have liveblogged it. Enjoy.

Washington is a town that shuts down when it gets 2 inches of snow, so a couple million hope-junkies clogging the infrastructure has led to full-scale panic. Join us!

Barack and Michelle Obama are having coffee with George and Laura Bush right now! It's an inaugural tradition — and wouldn't you know that those hick Clintons screwed it up last time?

The Inauguration of Barack Obama is on every channel in the world, but there is a problem: nothing will "happen" for another hour or so! So which channel should you watch to kill time until change comes?

Even if women didn't have to deal with inferior pay and career advancement, the burden of childbirth, an obligation to rip out body hair with hot wax, and Greg Behrendt telling us what to do all the time, men would still have it easier: Their brains are better wired to resist eating, according to a new study, which makes dieting less agonizing. So, yes, some people have no excuse. [Time]

Aww. Jenna and Barbara Bush, George W.'s cat-like daughters, had someone write a letter to Obama's kids, Malia and Sasha. It's about how to love living in the giant white mansion and stuff.

Want to get into the inauguration without waiting in the security lines? All you have to do is go "down and around the White House," according to Dana from New York, that little terrorist.
