From The White House Blog:
Today, we ‘re excited to announce the new White House App available for Apple iPhone and iPod Touch. The White House App delivers dynamic content from WhiteHouse.gov to the palm of your hand.
One feature that stands out is live video streaming. Now anyone with this app can watch the President ‘s public events at the White House, frequent web chats with Administration officials, and other events like key speeches and press briefings in real time.
In fact, the President ‘s State of the Union speech next week is a great example. In addition to the millions of Americans watching through TV and websites like WhiteHouse.gov/live, iPhone users on the go will be able to tune in through their phones.
Good stuff. I think that anything that makes government more open and approachable is a good thing. The live streaming sounds like a great feature and the app has already got some very favorable App Store reviews. It is also said to be the ‘just the first step for Whitehouse.gov ‘s mobile platform ‘.
You can find the The White House app in the iPhone App Store now, and it ‘s a free app.
