596 newspaper front pages announce Barak Obama's victory

A couple of days ago Scott Hanselman published an article where he described how he used some cool Microsoft technology (Silverlight) to display hundreds of newspaper images from dozens countries; he used newspaper front pages from November 5th 2008, one day after U.S. elections were held and Barak Obama won and became our 44th President. I took the same images and created a slideshow with the "Yes we can" song as background music. I filtered the images and excluded the headlines that did not include Barak Obama - I ended up with 596 images from newspapers across the world. If you'd like to check the origin of a specific headline, check out the original newspaper front pages at newseum.org. Good luck Mr. Obama - millions stand with you.
