just wanted to signal boost an app i heard about real quick.
a facebook friend recommended @countableus, so i thought i’d give it a shot.
what does it do?: allows you to pick topics of interest and see bills related to those topics that are coming through congress. the app asks for your address information so that you are connected to your state representatives. as legislation comes up that you have signaled interest in, you are allowed to “vote” on the legislation and send your vote to your representative with an email message.
cool new feature: this week they have added a feature that allows you to send a video message to your representatives so that you can feel like you are speaking to them more directly
availability: you can set up an account online, or on android and apple devices
