Last week we celebrated our billionth API call by announcing a giveaway, and Tuesday we went ahead and pulled the name of a random API user who had made at least one successful query. I’ve been emailing with him since, and am please so say that Matt Gabrenya is our winner! You can find his Github profile here, and his business site, Boston TechCollective, here.

Matt used our APIs to power his BillTrack project, which aims to make it easier to run advocacy campaigns on issues like SOPA and the Keystone XL pipeline.

We’re delighted that Matt found our APIs useful, and thrilled that thousands of you have as well. We’re going to keep making them better, deeper and more powerful; we’re counting on all of you to put them to good use.
