As millions descend upon Washington to witness a truly historic event, and what is sure to be equally historic confusion, we wanted to give visitors a way to navigate Washington while they are here. So Qorvis, in partnership with Patton Boggs, PointAbout, and FortiusOne, is offering a free application for the iPhone and Blackberry that allows users to quickly get information on pretty much any and all of the information vistors will be looking for - Inaugural events, restaurants, directions, Metro and Bus schedules, Wi-Fi Locations, Local Weather and Traffic, etc. We released the application’s second version today, which includes a polling component called Speak Your Mind that gauges real-time user sentiment about inaugural events.
We are really proud of this application and hope all iPhone and Blackberry users who will be in and around Washington for the Inauguration will find it useful! You can download the application at http://navigatingwashington.com and find videos showing how to use the application here and here.
Lastly, be sure to check out the piece CNN aired featuring the application last night.
