Obamas Road to Presidency
Today is Inauguration Day. To celebrate that historic event, this blog post is written in English. More English posts will follow as WhatsYourPlace is very close to complete internationalisation, and some practice is needed 
In a few hours, Barack Obama will be sworn in as the 44th president of the United States. Obamas Road to Presidency can be virtually followed on our respective parcel ring. Just click on the link and you find a list of places that marked Obamas road. Clicking on any of those place names will show it on Google Maps - alongside some additional infos, as long as the current owner of the place has edited them.
