iphone field testing

My wife volunteers for the Red Cross. She is on one of the local Disaster Assistance Teams. She is on a rotation, and this week she is on call.

Twice now over this weekend, while we were over at a friend’s house, she’s gotten called to help find people shelter because of fires. Both times I looked up the address with the iPhone, used the google maps app to plot a route, and drove her there.

Then, while she helps people find shelter and fill out forms, I sat in the car and watched videos (I can’t help because I’m not on the team).

So there we go. My iPhone has helped roughly 30 people find shelter this weekend, if only indirectly.
