The Guardian in the U.K. has been overwhelmed with public response since setting up a
Flickr group Nov. 6 asking readers to send in messages to president-elect Barack Obama as he prepares to take office. There have been more than 900 photographs sent in so far, and photos are still coming in. Most convey good wishes; these photos are among those submitted. Check out the "messageforobama" group on Flickr by clicking
HERE. (And for a look at how Obama and his team may use
social media to help it govern, see
The Wired White House by Alan Boyle, posted today on msnbc.com's
CosmicLog.)

This blog is very realistic to the problems that we are facing today. I am glad that someone is letting the people in power know what ordinary people are dealing with as far as our need to fix the economy, end a senseless war and understand the need to restore our civil rights. What's been happening under Bush, the erosion of the Constitution, has been a joke and fixing these things is a top priority. The photos are a good way of explaining it. Thank You for posting this blog!
