Probably because you didn't read the text. There's literally no content here, even less than he had on his campaign website. You're "impressed" with some web geek throwing together a demo site. This election in a nutshell.

  No. Technologically it's not all that impressive, it's the human element that is. They moved on this really quickly. It's surprising the coordination to get this done can be done in a day.

    Probably half the commenters on this very thread (not me, I don't do web stuff) could have produced a site as good or better in half the time. Are you serious?

      Like I said, it's not the technological aspect that is impressive. It's he human aspect. How quickly they coordinated this.

        Gah, WHAT human aspect? All this is is a mediocre distillation of junk said on the campaign page. There's no new content. Nothing. You're seriously cheering on an organization that can write a boring summarization of some text in 36 hours (which they didn't, as mentioned the cert is more than a week old). I can handle fact that he was elected, I guess. But this kind of celebration of mediocrity by his "supporters" who really should know better is just too much.

    You would expect this kind of thing to be largely pre-prepared. Most of the content falls out from the campaign documents and the actual elements of the site would exist regardless of president (job portal etc.)

I assume they had it ready to go and live and putting it in to production was simply a matter of registering the domain and pointing the DNS at the server hosting this.
