App of the Week -Brigade
This year, the best day of the year- the 4th of July- bought about the 1 millionth opinion on the app Brigade. And it was good.
Brigade is the heart-child of Sean Parker (remember him from Napster? Perhaps the Facebook movie?) and it is a social network where those who care about the political side of life come to share their opinions.
The idea is simple and great- you scroll and find issues that matter to you, and you vote on which side of the fence you sit on. It’s a space for debate, meaningful and successful (hopfully) debate concerning issues that matter to the people.
The app is currently invitation only, on both iOS and Android.
Ideas floating around when we checked it out were:
“Congress should reform our electoral system to end gerrymandering and eliminate obstacles to voting,”
“Women should be given more paid maternity leave,”
People can vote for what they believe in by simply clicking a button and can add to their vote by commenting, as well as having the ability to see the percentage breakdown of how others responded, and read others comments.
