SeeClickFix. Might it help in Torrington?

I just saw an interesting article on CNN.com about the usage of a mobile app in San Francisco, which allows people to take pictures of badly needed areas of repair within their fair city. SeeClickFix enables users to photograph the offending area/situation and send the complaints directly to City Hall, geo-tagged and everything for *prompt attention by public works.




At first, I thought this was a San Fran exclusive - which would make sense. But lo and behold, SeeClickFix is a free app available in the iTunes store, and actually has a fair amount of Torrington action in the works already: http://www.seeclickfix.com/torrington

I'd like to know if anyone in the local administration knows about the proactive reporting that is taking place in Torrington. If not, they really need to take a look. SeeClickFix has the potential to empower the local citizenry into seeing something get done, instead of waiting for Town Hall to finish their renovation pet-project.

* prompt attention may not be available in your local area ; )
