Tech czar remains low-profile
Jon Stewart calls him the Indian George Clooney. He counts Democratic National Committee Chairman and former Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine as one of his job references. And President Barack Obama has tasked him with finding ways for technology to advance his priorities. Yet Aneesh Chopra, the nation's first chief technology officer, or tech czar, has been so low profile in Washington's usual power corridors that it's almost as though he's the first virtual czar. He's not, of course, and the reality can be a bit startling, especially when the 37-year-old's unorthodox style and bountiful energy is housed inside a White House that aspires to being steadfast and a little boring.
