President Obama
I’ve never been more proud to be an american.
If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible; who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time; who still questions the power of our democrocy, tonight is your answer. -Barack Obama (election night)
Obama’s iPhone App
Have you seen Obama’s website? Not only does it look great, but it’s a fascinating case study on how to use social media that I think any company could emulate. I’ve been impressed overall with Obama’s progressive use of technology, case in point- his new iPhone App.
The app stays true to Obama’s consistently great looking campaign and has some relevant features that take advantage of almost every iPhone capability.
My favorite feature is the “Issues” section, which has detailed overviews on where Obama stands on almost every issue, complete with video.
Here’s the feature list from the site:
- Call Friends: A great volunteering tool that lets you make a difference any time you want by talking to people you already know. Your contacts are prioritized by key battleground states, and you can make calls and organize results all in one place.
- Call Stats: See nationwide Obama ‘08 Call Friends totals and find out how your call totals compare to leading callers.
- Get Involved: Do more. Find and contact your local Obama for America HQ.
- Receive Updates: Receive the latest news and announcements via text messages or email.
- News: Browse complete coverage of national and local campaign news.
- Local Events: Find local events, share by email and get maps and directions.
- Media: Browse videos and photos from the campaign.
