This is great, Robb. But what about the Web? I was browsing lots of newspaper sites last night while waiting for results, and I was impressed how many of them broke out of their regular front page templates to display the latest Super Tuesday information and analysis. Lots of map mash-ups and infographics. I grabbed screen shots of a few of the better ones I saw. Anybody have any other good examples?

As far as our print edition, well, you could say we "zagged" today while everyone else zigged - to the point that irate readers are calling, threatening never to read the paper again, etc.

In terms of online, though, here's what our main blogger Will Bunch and I were doing last night... (headline reflects last post - it was changed to reflect whatever was the latest news)

FOX Interactive Media launched this page on Super Tuesday. It's not necessarily just for politics, but it was a way to showcase election coverage that night. It's www.livenewscameras.com.

I'm not particularly found of the design, but the concept is great.
