I added a new feature to the same-sex marriage map (and corresponding webOS version) - a cartogram! It weights each state by population (roughly) so you have a better view as to what percentage of the population lives under what laws. (and it's easier to see what a big deal New York is!)

Since the last crazy webOS app review, I've gotten a few more! The first one is responding to that last reviewer:

To (the negative reviewer):I pray that you die in a fiery car crash. JUST KIDDING! I don't pray. But I'm hoping for that crash. :-)
and today I woke up to a new one star review:
Men who say they are gay are basically telling you they like another man's pen1s up their butt... That's freaking disgusting! Y wud I want to know tht?! How wud you like it if i came up to you and told you I liked to swallow d1cks? Don't you all get it? May the lord Jesus Christ have mercy on these wretched sinners, or may he smite them for their Satanous ways... I love God & he protects the holy, I am at peace.

Sigh. I think my next app is going to be about puppies; everyone likes puppies, right?

Well after having lived in massachusetts, I can safely say that its only a matter of time. The world won't end when gay marriage is finally legal but it's not like I needed any convincing. Its really hard to believe that this is still an issue that affects so much of the country!

Yeah, sometimes I'm amazed at the progress we've made, and the rest of the time I'm amazed this is really an issue in the first place....

I love the 1s in there, like he's use to avoiding spam filters...you got hate-spammed by a professional! Yay?

Ooh, also, I was thinking, do you have a Where's Lunch app? Because that seems like a good mobile app. I was thinking about it recently -- do you still maintain the website? Because I'l add DC stuff!

Yeah - I was impressed by his spelling, too, until I got past the first sentence...

Ooh, that's a good idea. The website still works, as far as I know, so feel free to add DC places!

Um... what about Cruella DeVille?

PS: I'm someone you know IRL, just not someone you've met on LJ before... :-)
