http://www.openpoll.us/ http://www.openpoll.us/ openpoll is an electronic direct democracy that will allow Americans to vote on state and federal bills and elections. It is currently in development and has been for the past 2 years (I work on it in my spare time as getting funding isn't a viable option). I am in the data acquisition stage right now. That means writing parsers to pull legislation information from every state's website. As of right now, the site isn't much more than a UI slapped on top of a DB. It has registration, basic voting, and commenting. I would like to hear any potential ideas from the internet community for this site. I plan on having beta testing in the first quarter of 2011. Some point after that, I will open source the code. Then I will add a Web API that will allow smartphone applications to be built. And if I get enough traction, eventually turn my LLC into a non-profit. My target market is every single American. My eventual goal is to turn phone booths into voting booths. Pretty lofty goals, but I believe it will make America a much better place.
