Pittsburgh >> Boston

"I don't know what's better - the YinzCam or iBurgh... Either way, it's always nice to see the Pittsburgh beat Boston :)" - Maria

As the Pittsburgh's Post Gazette's article, released on Aug 18th 2009 states, "Pittsburgh has won the 'space race' with Boston to adopt the first iPhone application for registering citizen complaints through a mobile phone."

The iBurgh, a free application and developed by YinzCam Inc., became available this past weekend and through the efforts of city council men Bill Peduto. Now residents of Pittsburgh can now snap photos of potholes and graffiti and have them sent directly to the complaint hot line!

This how great would this idea be in other cities! YinzCam, let me know when you're coming to Cincinnati and/or Seattle!

Thanks for reading,

Alex
