Obama campaign iPhone app

In yet another example of the smallification of politics, ZDNet's Apple Core column reports that the Obama campaign has released an iPhone app:

The app has a Call Your Friends feature that organizes your contacts by key battleground states and adds a field for notes on who you called, who they are supporting and if they want a reminder call on election day. The information remains private [and} doesnt leave your phone although the total amount of calls made are tallied to track progress.

Technology continues to reshape the political landscape on a cataclysmic level.
