Facebook Wants You to Find Your Polling Location

Facebook wants you to vote in tomorrow’s election. Just in the nick time, the social network launched a polling place locator on the U.S. politics page. Take a gander at the application and you see a simple embedding of Google’s poll finder. At least it’s the thought that counts.

But I’m calling it a classic example of what happens when you leave things to the last minute. Had this launched a couple of weeks ago, there would have been time to debug it; that ought to include an assessment of whether to use Google’s poll finder or find something more effective.
