To those of you who had heard of my idea to augment the 911 service through an app, it turns out that someone beat me to it. Meet the iWitness.
And I must say, the audio capturing idea is a clever replacement for my thoughts on emitting and capturing perpetrators mobile phone numbers via some complex effort on the part of the police, cell phone services, and hardware manufacturers.
It seems that the rate of technological growth is such that you can barely think an idea before it is created!
A longer post will follow when I'm not at work.
