Before anyone hops all over me for posting politics – let me remind you of something that’s somewhat important to know – I can’t vote, so while I do care, I don’t care. I’m pro-bama but not completely Anti-McCain. I truly believe in the concept of “divided we fail”.

Alright … my stupid views aside, this is really cool.

I think we may have achieved a record for the launch of such a complex app in such a short period, and many excellent features were dropped for lack of time. It was really fun to develop, knowing the power of features like Call Friends (which sorts your address book by key battleground states) and Get Involved (which uses CoreLocation to direct you to the nearest Obama Headquarters). The app was designed as a means to donate your time in discreet segments ” we call it ‘micro-volunteering ‘.

First, what makes this cool is that they managed all of this in a month, and second they all volunteered their time to make this happen. They aren’t charging for the application, they’re simply doing what they know best in an effort to do their part in the election. So, if you’re an Obama supporter take a minute head on over to iTunes and download this wonderful effort.
