The president said that only 10 people have the address of the BlackBerry he was issued, and the conversation is a bit stilted because messages will likely be archived along with all other White House documents.
Obama fought hard to keep his BlackBerry when he became president, but with only 10 people authorized to email him, he admitted that it was "no fun"
He said that it was no fun because people think that whatever was sent him would be recorded down, so nobody wants to send him the "real juicy stuff".
"It's all very official. 'Mr. President, you have a meeting coming up and we'd like to brief you.'", these are the kind of messages he would receive on his BlackBerry.
Obama however was happy to reveal the contents of his iPod, which included Jay-Z, Frank Sinatra and opera legend Maria Callas.
The president said he had no tracks by teen heartthrob Justin Bieber, but did once meet the singer when he performed at the White House.
"He's a very nice young man."
This interview was done on 'The View', an American talk show on Channel ABC.
