We pull in donation opportunities, volunteer positions, petitions, event, and other actions from 60+ different sources. In 2007, I realized that a much more effective way to aggregate interesting actions would be to subscribe to RSS feeds from trusted sources. That’s today. We have encountered a number of challenges over the years.

I remember leaving for Vegas and making a promise to Joe that I would submit a mashup to the 2009 Change the Web Challenge. The mashup was a map showing where people were volunteering in near-real-time. Our application also automatically generates RSS feeds for their supporters to stay engaged throughout the life of the project.

Along with 3 colleagues, we volunteered to develop an entry for the Apps for America 2 contest , sponsored by the Sunlight Foundation. Entrants built useful applications incorporating at least one data feed from Data.gov , in an effort to make government data accessible and usable. Our entry was not only fun, but useful -- a bonus!
