This past, very wet, weekend a small contingent of Pollenizer’s participated in the volunteer run GovHack 2012. Armed with government published data, we set our sights on providing a forum for residents to contact their local representative.
After two days of development Bako was produced; Connecting Locals with Local Representatives. Residents post video questions and concerns via Bako and the local member responds in video.
Many thanks to Product Manager Albert Issa, and Platform Engineers Tom Rothwell, Simon Males and Ayumi Mizoshiri for giving up their weekend!
