With the Polling Place Photo Project, citizen photographers around the country posted photos of last night's election. Hoping to celebrate democracy and report on this important election, they built an open-source photo essay about the 2006 polls.
Did you take any pictures? There's still time share them. Check it out:
"The idea for an open source photo essay that would attempt to capture what it looks like when Americans go to vote in 2006 emerged from a conversation I had with Bill Drenttel in September. Three years ago he designed PressThink, my blog. Later he started a successful blog of his own, Design Observer. We both like to do things that aren’t being done. When he read about my experiment with NewAssignment.Net, Drenttel wondered: could the design community do 'social network” journalism?'"
