So the election for the UK was finally announced this week, probably the worse unannounced date! All the media outlets have been jumping on the bandwagon with some fantastic but probably useless election tools.
The BBC for example has the election calculator where you can spend all of, well lets be honest a minute or so. Dragging bars around to find out what could happen at the election and how much percentage each party would need to get a majority.

The Guardian has something very similar plus also a daily poll that they report on with great flash graphics

The times also has the daily poll on there site as well as well as an interactive map of what could happen

Then you land on the Suns webpage and what do you get a lovely text written these are the current poll percentages!
Bad form from the The Sun I think!
Finally probably the best of them all, are you sick of the media outlets, borrowed hearing about expenses, cannot make up your mind which one to vote for because they all sound the same. Well votematch.org.uk is the way to decide how your votes match with the major parties.
