Want to be able to connect to other vegans from your pocket?  No, this is not some creepy “is that your wallet in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?” kind of thing.  This is a reach into your pocket, pull out your cell phone, and open an app to connect kind of thing!

More accurately, it’s V Nation for iPhone.  According to their website, “V Nation is everything you need to connect with other vegans and vegetarians and share your passion for this lifestyle, on the go, right in your pocket.”  You can share photos with other members, find and share local vegan places, and build relationships with other users.  It is also a useful tool because it includes all the latest information shared by users including opinions.  And following the Twitter, and now Facebook, trend, you can also use hashtags to find information about virtually anything.  Can you say #vegan #awesomeness?
