Democracy + Technology = I’m excited (Update x 1)
Yes we 101001010111
When you mix two of my favorite things together, like say democracy and technology, I piddle on the carpet like a hyper chihuahua. I love it. And technology is doing things for democracy that would make Thomas Jefferson join me in my pee.
Today, an iPhone app (don’t even get me started now on the iPhone, I’ll spend a month on it) debuted that shows Barack Obama’s campaign really gets this technology thing.
Obama ’08 is your official, comprehensive connection to the heart of Barack Obama and Joe Biden’s campaign, giving you the tools you need to make an impact and stay in the know…
Oh, and you can make donations from your iPhone as well. This might kill my checking account in the same way the iTunes store did.
UPDATE: There is a feature that lets you organize calls to your contacts. It takes their area codes and breaks them down by state. Swing states first in order, of course. How hot is that?
