I played around with a few things here. I looked at some job searching sites for my friend, but that's boring.
I also played around with Urban Spoon. I also have this app on my IPhone, but I never use it. I managed to find out that one of my favorite restaurants in Georgia has a location in Ft. Worth--not super close, but worth a drive sometime. (It's the Mellow Mushroom by the way.) Yeah! I would have never known. Plus, they now have gluten free pizza--DOUBLE YEAH!
So I got to thinking...what if we had a cool way of putting up reviews about media that people might not usually find interesting. We should recommend books for people more too--in the catalogue when they search. But someday it would be cool to have an app for all these high-tech phones and devices that is like Urban Spoon for books. What if it showed books in the area you were standing in that had good reviews?! Or what if you could a random review by shaking the device--cause that's fun too. It might help circulation too. We could have a very interactive and tech savvy system someday--but of course you know patrons would still not be able to find anything or misplace it for us anyway.
