It takes time for the offices to get their official portraits taken, but all 439 (433 representatives of the states, because there are two vacant offices, plus delegates from American Samoa, the District of Columbia, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands) Members of the House of Representatives are included, sorted by sex, hair color, party, and committee membership.

Get Congressman Who on the App Store today, and start looking up the names you need.

In addition, Senator Who 1.0.4 has been released, updated with new offices and committee memberships, and it also includes the redesigned details screen and easy feedback button from Congressman Who. I want to hear your feedback. If you have a better photo of someone, or if you think they’re miscategorized, let me know!

]]>Three new senators on the Hillhttp://www.tamboli.cx/blog/2010/11/15/three-new-senators-on-the-hill.htmlJay Tamboli2010-11-15T19:23:45Z2010-11-15T19:23:45ZEarlier this month three new senators were elected in special elections: Chris Coons (D-DE), Mark Kirk (R-IL), and Joe Manchin (D-WV). (Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) also won a special election and will remain in the Senate.) Because these senators will be taking office this week, I’m working to get an update out as soon as I can get photos of the new senators.

]]>Senator Who reviewed at iPhone J.D.http://www.tamboli.cx/blog/2010/11/9/senator-who-reviewed-at-iphone-jd.htmlJay Tamboli2010-11-09T21:59:21Z2010-11-09T21:59:21ZThere is a review of Senator Who up at iPhone J.D. showing exactly how Senator Who can be used: if you run into someone walking through the Capitol, open up Senator Who and enter as much as you can see about the person, and Senator Who will show you the Senators that match. If you’re not sure whether the person’s a Democrat or Republican, that’s fine. Enter what you know, and Senator Who will sort it out.

As Jeff mentions in the review, I am definitely planning an update to be released in January when the new Congress arrives. I also hope to have a small update in the next couple of weeks to include the senators elected in special elections, since they’ll be serving in the lame duck session.

A version for the House of Representatives is also in the works, and I’m hoping to have it ready for January (can’t promise, though).
