Description

This web app is designed for mobile devices. It uses location aware browsers, like the one in android and iphone 3.0, to find your location. Using your location it then determines what zipcode you are in using ws.geonames.org. It also pulls up your current congressional district using the Sunlight lab services. With all of this information it queries the USASpending.gov API to determine how much Recovery Funding has gone out in your current location. You can search by your current zip code, district or state.

I am having trouble with GitHub, so I just linked to a zip file with the source. I think everything is in place but I might have to do a little tweaking... I am down to the 11, scratch that, 12 hour...
