PolitiFact App Makes Its Broadway Debut

The PolitiFact app has fast become the poster child for all that is great about Flash, Flex, and AIR. The app is useful, fun, responsive, supports multiple platforms and devices, and was built by one developer using a single codebase in just three weeks. Recently the iPhone/iPad version of the app made Apple's What's Hot list, too. Well, now the app has made its Broadway debut, featured on a giant electronic billboard in Times Square, complete with a huge onscreen QR code for easy downloading.

This is excellent (and a good use of ad spend.) Politifact is one of my favorite sites, and I now use the app daily. Great use of AIR to create a first-class app experience.
