Obama Campaign Launches Document Archive On Scribd (techcrunch.com)

What's the point of having documents on Scribd? They could just have it in HTML/text on their homepage. Scribd is stupid.


It's good if you don't have a domain of your own from which to host PDFs.

But Obama's got domain space to burn, so this seems more an attempt to draw the tech crowd in, since techies influence other people. Almost like a Maven trap.


Just because it's on techcruch covering a YC company doesn't mean it should be on HN....


I don't follow politics, but Obama at least seems to have tech on his radar. I couldn't find a thing on McCain's site.

A techie may have Obama's ear, if he's on Twitter and Scribd.


McCain said in an interview that he is completely clueless about computers. He said he needed help to check his email. I wouldn't be surprised if McCain still thinks internet is a series of tubes


Can anyone link to the pdf?


God please no... No obama/mccain spam on yc!


No. of documents on climate change: 0
