Barack Obama is your new bicycle

I think my favourite website is currently www.barackobamaisyournewbicycle.com which is a little oddity created by Matthew Honan who says of the web “I loved that I could pluck some odd thing out of my brain and someone, somewhere out there would relate to it. Might even love it.”

The page just serves up short phrases, some of which are really lovely and poke affectionate fun at the feelgood Obama factor. Have a look and refresh the page a few times, there are some great lines on there. The new bicycle trend has now spread, there was also a Hillary Clinton version (it’s down now) and yes, John McCain has one too, although it simply says JOHN McCAIN IS SUPER AWESOME! no matter how many times you refresh it. Hmm…

My guerrilla efforts at work to pin up a few of the Obama phrases around the studio also resulted in some McCain retaliation:



Let’s hope his aim isn’t so good these days…
