It’s projects like this that make me sure that the Guardian is indeed the best newspaper in the UK.

On November 5 we started a photographic project, with users of guardian.co.uk and of Flickr, entitled A Message for Obama. The essence of the idea was to see if we could capture reaction to Barack Obama’s presidential victory in a creative way. It started with a few of us taking pictures around the Guardian offices, and snowballed into a Flickr picture group which you can see here.

Just to push the boundaries of collaborative social media and new publishing technologies a little further, we wondered if we could produce a rapid Message for Obama book (a handy inauguration gift for the new President?), using a selection of photos from the pool.
