There’s a new application available in the AppStore called Congress+, which offers all of the vital information an U.S. citizen need to be an effective activist in between congressional elections.
The application features photos, district maps, latest news including election results, campaign finance information, and official bios. Additionally, you can view or search by the full Congress, the House or Senate, or search directly for your Delegates, Representatives or Senators. Moreover, you can easily connect with your Senators and Representatives with office telephone numbers, contact forms, Twitter links, as well as get contact information of their staff.
Finally, if you plan to visit DC in some time, the app integrates Google Maps, providing you with directions how to reach the man/woman from your district…
Enough said. Congress+ is a great app for everyone who wants to be involved in the political process. I guess every U.S. citizen should care about this, right? The app is available for 10 bucks in AppStore, while lighter version simply called Congress, could be yours for a buck.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
