Obama Vs McCain – May the Best Website Win!
With so much of the Internet world focused on these two candidates, I figure I would throw my hat in the ring. Instead of ranting and raving about the issues and which man is right for the job, I’m going to make my determination like any good techie would…by his Website of course! So without further ado, I will attempt to take an unbiased look at these two fine gentlemen’s Websites and may the best Website win!
I will rate them on five different categories, all having to do with aesthetics, usability and their ability to get their message across.
The first category up for grabs is color pollution. This is the ability to use a few (less than three) primary colors to make your Website attractive and vibrant without overdoing it. More than three can be distracting by giving the user too many things to look at. The last thing you want to do is take away from the most important thing on a Website: the content!
So who’s guilty of color pollution?
Well, I wouldn’t say either site is completely guilty, but one falls closer to the edge of color pollution than the other.
McCain’s site has the colors green, blue, yellow, red and white throughout the site. The site really looks busy and it’s hard to know where to look and what the primary message is.
Obama’s site, on the other hand, is very clean and organized. He does a nice job of using blue as his main color of choice with some splashes of red against a white background. Very nice and elegant.
So the winner of the first round is…Obama!
