First 100 Days gets dizzying amount of coverage

I agree with Spencer Green. As he stated in his Huffington Post piece: "First 100 Days" coverage can lead to physical ailments....I'll spare you the phrasing he uses. (lol) But PLEASE check it out. Hilarious.



As of this morning at 9:33, Google showed 109 million search results for "First 100 Days" and a Google news search showed 43,000 results.


Mind-boggling.


Still, some news outlets are doing some fairly creative multi-media productions of President Obama's First 100 days.


One of the more interesting approaches would have to be this one by The Los Angeles Times.

"A week before the 2008 election, we asked commuters what they expected from the new president. Here are their initial thoughts and their current views. Times editorial page editor Jim Newton puts the first 100 days in perspective."

It's a little old school -- it's got the Man-on-the-Street vibe to it -- as well as digital and I think I like it.
