    The son of one of my best friends is a finalist in Microsoft's Imagine Cup. This year, there is also a People's Choice Award. I would greatly appreciate it if you would go and vote for NOTETAKER. My friend's son is legally blind and developed this to enable visually handicapped students to take their own notes in class. He is also one of the nicest people you could ever hope to meet and has worked very hard to overcome his disabilities. In fact, based on his success in the Imagine Cup last year, he has been recruited by several top universities and will probably be going to MIT in the fall to do his PhD.

    I voted, but noticed it had to go through Facebook.

    Looks like people can vote every day. I'll look for the text voting option next time.
