Web App: Tweet Congress

This item was filed under [ web apps ]

Tweet Congress is a website that allows users to search for which members of Congress are tweeting. The idea is to enable conversation between lawmakers and voters in real time.

Features:

  • simple, elegant, efficient UI
  • search feature for tweeting members of Congress
  • following/follower stats
  • view timelines of active tweeting members

The Good:

Tweet Congress is a great tool. You can easily follow any or all of the tweeting members of Congress on twitter, see their following/follower stats and get a tweetstream from the most active members. Views are broken down along party lines and by state. Contact information is provided for those members of Congress who do not yet twitter, so you can nudge them. Politics will be ramping up again soon, and we suspect true political junkies will be unable to manage without Tweet Congress.

The Not-so-Good:

Nothing. Everything is good here. Tweet Congress does exactly what it sets out to do, all in a very appealing way.
