One of the things that’s been on my list for a long time is setting up some form of remote assistance on my dad’s computer. I think I will give Crossloop a try this weekend.

A flashback to where it all began for the next President. Article from William Finnegan (The New Yorker) written in May of 2004 about Obama. Seems a good time to revisit that earlier time.

A real tour de force from Newsweek on the behind the scenes doings of the major campaigns over the last 18 months. It’s in seven parts and takes a bit of committment to finish, but well worth it.

7. Los Angeles-based twitterer Bill Palmer noticed that literally everyone caught election fever: homeless guy on Hollywood Blvd with a sign that says “Obama aint the only one who wants change”–now that’s clever. McCain supporters, insert your own potshot about “spreading the wealth around” here.

The boston Globe offers some great photos of Obama from the campaign trail and election night.
