Barack Obama: Social (Media) Butterfly
Barack Obama’s campaign website has an incredibly powerful and innovative area called my.barackobama.com. It is a social media site that is every bit as powerful and connecting as Facebook.
You can start a blog (Heck, what’s one more? Todd Epp’s Barackified Blog), find fellow Barackites, join various Barackian groups (My personal favorite: Bruce Springsteen Fans for Barack), and it’s even competitive. You earn points for being active on the site.
I’m currently in the 116,000s or so, but climbing fast. Who says progressives and Democrats don’t like competition?
Whether you like Barack or not, if you’re at looking political website design and getting supporters involved, the Man Crush is definitely in the realm of 2.0.
