[Partial cross-post from Squarestate.net]
Given all the recent press regarding MySpace, I was surprised not to find a compilation of useful MyS bullet points and action items for use by other progressive campaigns. (Please forgive if I have overlooked one.) Sarah Carter has done amazing things and has a great action section in the blog portion of her dad's MyS profile, but it seemed a list with advance permission for use might be helpful.
Below the flip please find a compilation of items we have used in various spots. Feel free to copy and edit the html for your own progressive campaign. [I also have the code for adding a text box of code to reference images if you'd like but it doesn't post well in the diaries.] We are working on posting updates as they occur and soon will have a campaign 'store' for fresher/young voter T-shirts etc. Finally, we recommend using the comment feature when people add the candidate because it increases clickthroughs and encourages reciprocation (which creates its own momentum).
This is still a newer area of our outreach so I am sure there are things we have missed. Please feel free to share other ideas in the comments!
