Citizens Opinion Mining

This application idea of mine is really nothing new..! It came to me while having a discussion with my professor as a part of an exciting mobile application project for students. The idea is to collect the opinions of citizens on common and core issues, and in turn use this to give aggregate stats results scorecards of a location like a municipality, a town, a state, a district etc. This can help create awareness, and transparency in the system, as well as become a voice of the people to the administration. I am also working on a citizens opinion based project in context of the european union, and I see the mobile as a great and the only medilum to really reach out to capture masses opinion in electronic form.

I got motivated to go beyond my thought and put some screenshots and mock ups ready, since I also wanted to submit something to nokias makemyapp competition..here is my idea.I am also putting it here ..since i personally think I managed some good stuff overnight :) and wanted to share it of course..!! And please drop in comments and ideas ..I would also welcome collaboration (of thought or of actions both..) for making this a reality.
