DanKam is a $3 iPhone and Android app which allows the user to adjust for their colorblindness.
Though not colorblind himself, Dan Kamisky designed the app, and gives a great run down on it on his blog, aptly named Dan Kamisky's Blog.
He excerpts some of the reviews from the app stores, and they're understandably positive,
"As a colorblind person I just downloaded this app. How can I f*cking nominate you to the Nobel Prize committee? I am literally, almost in tears writing this, I CAN FRICKIN’ SEE PROPER COLORS!!!! PLEASE KEEP UP THIS WORK! AND CONTINUE TO REFINE THIS APP!

This is why I love the web and technology. This is a perfect example of a great idea which would improve the lives of thousands of people. Because of technology and the web, he was able to bring it to fruition and get out at a reasonable cost for people to access. And as it's a mobile phone application, it also allows people to use it where they live and function, rather than being tied to a desktop.
