MyPicks U.S. Election update 2
myPicks U.S. Election update
myPicks U.S. Election 2008 is getting more users every day - as you can see on the chart to the right. 

We have been adding new features steadily. I don't mean just additional poll questions or trivia questions. Here is a list of features that we added recently:
  • Included a Rest of the World graphic to indicate the preference for Presidential Candidate from users outside the U.S.A
  • Comments included by users in "Voice Your Opinion" are also tweeted. Follow @mypicksus on Twitter to see the stream of comments
  • The application is now available on MySpace. So, you can login to your MySpace account and run the application. The poll data is aggregated across both Facebook and MySpace.

What strikes me is the similarity in the data in the myPicks application and the CNN Web Site. I have included the two electoral charts below.
