Doodle

I'm interested to see if Doodle, the app covered in this posting on Swissmiss, will become popular in the United States. According to Swissmiss, it's currently enjoying popularity in Switzerland. The app allows users to create polls and schedule events.

I checked out the site, and I'm not entirely sure what it has to offer that Outlook, Gmail calendars, and email do not. While making polls is a fun feature, it doesn't seem like a commonly-enough used process to warrant a unique application. The polls seem less advanced than those created by sites like SurveyMonkey, so I doubt the app is prized for its ability to survey large groups of people more effectively than other sites.
