Oil Reporter is a free new iPhone and Android app that allows crowdsourced reporting of the massive oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
Built using Appcelerator by volunteers and organizations committed to open source apps for good causes, including Crisis Commons, Intridea and Github, the app allows anyone to document the spill from the shore (or a boat if you have one) right from a smartphone. Users will be able to post and view reports on Twitter and answer the following questions:
“What do you see?” (a picture can be taken and attached)
