It seems that the former God of Microsoft, Bill Gates' can't stop talking – about everything. Lately his twitters about Italy, and the world in general have been popping up everywhere, now it seems be is backing his twits with talk show appearances about everything under the sun.

This morning he was speaking on ABC's Good Morning America telling us that the U.S. economy could take years to recover from recession and predicted taxes will have to rise to bring the federal budget into balance. He was warning about the perils of too much government intervention and urged President Barack Obama to focus policy on long-term issues such as education to combat the effects of the worst recession since the Great Depression.

"When you have a financial crisis like that, it's years of digging out," said Gates he said sagely.

We fully expect him to appear on Blue Peter soon to explain how to use double sided sticky tape and why you need an adult to help you use scissors.
