Don’t you wish voting were “more fun and social,” in the parlance of social startups? Now, with a new collaboration between CNN and Facebook, it will be. The two have joined forces to make the “I’m Voting” Facebook app, an app that enables Facebook users to endorse candidates and issues, and to commit to voting. If you use the app and commit to voting for someone, that information appears in your timeline, news feed, and real-time ticker. During CNN’s political coverage this fall, CNN personalities will use the app to poll users on issues. This isn’t the first time CNN and Facebook have teamed up, pointed out CNN’s KC Estenson.
