The barackobama.com website has a great design. As such, I was in a design meeting today for a new site design I'm working on and the designer had me go to their site to show me a few features they are using. Digging deeper, I started using my developer tools to look at the page's source code.. Follow me past the fold for the coolness that was uncovered behind the scenes!

Check it out in full size. So cool.
My heart jumped a little when I saw it. If you, like me, remember when the internet meant my local bbs and Legend of the red dragon and a hashtag was used to delineate irc chat rooms... you may appreciate it too.
When the other campaign is fraught "Mercia" gaffes and the like, it's refreshing to see a professional operation who puts thought into each and every detail. Nice to be on the side of the guy who's got this and has a team of pros who've got the details.
