BigPath Back Online for Campaign Downloads.This is an introduction for those not around during the 2004 campaign, and a
"it's good to be back" for those who might remember
BigPath from back then.
I apologize for being out of the fray for so long, but priorities shifted and it took me quite awhile to get the technology needed for the revamped site under my belt. But,
BigPath is resurrected in a slightly different form, but hopefully with the same spirit as before. I had planned on having it back online months ago, but it's been rebuilt as a data-driven site that should make it easier to maintain in the long run and it took me quite awhile to get the technology needed for the revamped site under my belt.
What is BigPath?BigPath exists for one purpose only: to produce motivational PDFs for download. They are clearly progressive in nature and aimed at a Democratic audience. However, this year there will be more pieces aimed at swing voters.
The rules: Every download on
BigPath is free. Download any PDF as many times as you want. Distribute them any way you want. Print as many copies as you want. Use them as posters or rally handouts, hang them on bulletin boards, mail them to friends and family. We ask just two things in return: 1) leave the BigPath logo and copyright slug on every page you use and 2) tell everyone you know about the site. Note: You must have cookies enabled to download.
If you can help...Since I'm so late in getting the site up and running, it will be a huge help if anyone interested would spread the word around via email, posts on other sites, etc. DU was primarily responsible for the huge success of
The plan:I'm planning on adding as many new pieces as physically possible every day. As I did in 2004, I'll post announcements of new additions here in the appropriate forum(s) as they become available. Note: Because I've spent a huge amount of time on the backend technology, there are only a few pieces currently on the site, and (since I'm pretty much sleep-deprived) I haven't hit my stride in terms of content and concept.
I'm attaching a few samples below with a link. I look forward to re-joining the DU community.
