Not surprisingly, many recent user submissions revolve around our new President Elect Barak Obama and other election related contributions. Here are JUST SOME of my faves (be sure to visit notcot for many, many more):
Good Magazine features this graphic of what the last 12 Presidents have done during their first 100 days in office. (Very 3ptline.com - esque, don't you think?)
This helps in case you are a visual learner and need a reminder of how Obama's predecessor tried to drive this country back to the Stone Age. When FDR took office in 1933, he spent his first 100 days enacting a dizzying number of reforms designed to stabilize an economically depressed nation. Since then, a president’s first 100 days have been an indicator of what he is able to accomplish. I hope Obama's first 100 days and his presidency are as inspirational as his election.
BarackObama.com's flikr page captures the mood "backstage" on Election Night as the Obamas were watching the election results from home in Chicago, IL. Could they look more normal?
This project features the more than 700 newspaper front pages from all over the world, the day after Barack Obama was elected. You can click each individually to see each amazing cover on it's own. What an amazing project! It makes for an incredible mosaic.
WeJustLiveHere.com is a 2008 presidential election site for US aliens. It’s for all those who live here and pay taxes, yet because of their immigration status have no say in how the country is run. This is a super interesting concept, especially for those of us interested in Immigration Law & Policy. It serves as a place for aliens to vote in the Election of their adopted homeland and see what the results might have been if their votes counted.
Another amazing photography project of Obama and family going back in time to his campaign. Photographer and Digital Journalist Callie Shell had the opportunity to photograph Obama throughout his bid for president and has compiled a great set of photographs, including this one of him doing pull-ups before making a speech. Be sure to view her portfolio and her commentary. Again, even before he became President Elect, I am struck by how Obama seemed like such a decent, down-to-earth guy.
