Obama's Facebook Campaign
Available on the iPhone, the app lets you upload photos from your camera or photo library and apply retro filters or a tilt-shift effect and share them with the public. It's sort of like a Twitter for photos.
The account is run by the Obama 2012 staff. They encourage users to share photos from the campaign trail by using the hashtag #Obama2012.
So far, the account has posted three photos and gained 18,186 followers.
Obama gained a reputation as the first Internet President in 2008 because of his large following on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. Keeping with the trend in 2011, the President held a Twitter town hall and joined Google+.
