I’ve blogged about President Obama’s soliciting stories about his election and healthcare stories but complained that the administration did not seem to offer any mechanism to read the stories that were being sought.
In contrast, on the topic of the economic crisis, barackobama.com is 
offering stories. States the site: “Tens of thousands of people all across the country have shared their stories of losing jobs, struggling to pay bills, facing foreclosure, and closing family businesses after generations of hard work.”
The stories are presented in a slide-show format with Google maps indicating where each story-writer hails from. Of course, the purpose of sharing these stories is to make the case for the stimulus bill.
At another part of the site, you can share your story.
