Dan Peguine is the creator of QassamCount, a social networking application which tracks rocket attacks on Israel.[1]

Peguine set up the application on Twitter during the early days of Operation Cast Lead, the Israeli offensive in the Gaza Strip at the beginning of 2009. He subsequently partnered with Arik Fraimovich to develop QassamCount for Facebook.[2]

According to the Jerusalem Post website, the QassamCount application was a cornerstone of the online campaign run by HelpUsWin.org during the conflict.[3]
