My colleague Jonathan Weisberg has created an excellent free iPhone app. Among other things, the app allows you to run informal surveys, run intuition polls, etc. I was one of the beta testers and I can say that the interface is great and the thing works like a charm. During beta testing, for instance, I could learn what my peers thought about a difficult question in the metaphysics of dance: "Is Gangnam Style a Natural Kind". The answer field also introduced me to the trivalent logic which added to the traditional truth-values, the imporant tertium "Awesome". There were serious questions too, but, of course, I can't remember waht they were. The official literature is below the fold.

Sergio, it’s obvious where you should post this!
Jamie, I should have thought about this. But I hear the approval process there is murder!
