New data from Web analysis firm comScore reports that traffic to Democratic White House hopeful Barack Obama's campaign Web site grew fivefold to 2.2 million in January and traffic to Hillary Clinton's site more than tripled to 1.1 million in the build up to Super Tuesday.
According to MediaPost, Obama also has a lead on social network sites: Facebook supporters (589,224 to 120,216 as of press time), MySpace friends (287,715 to 185,709), and YouTube views (21.1 million to 7.6 million). Obama has been able to use the Internet as a key fund-raising tool. Of the $32 million his campaign raised in January, $28 million came from mostly small donors online.
