The Unofficial Obama Design Communities
We should add that what we just said about Banksy above also applies to the Obama campaign: you can’t post just one.

Our friends over at the Huffington Post were kind enough to drop us a line about this recent piece by Kristin Gorski, “Obama Website Design Inspires Young Artists Support and Votes,” which is a terrible title, but both an interesting recap of one of the best and smartest designed campaigns ever, as well as a look at all the officially-unconnected material created for it by the masses.
