Thing 17: Connecting to Community

I tried MN Museums for two reasons: first, I enjoy museums and don't know much about those outside of the cities and second, Northern Lights Library Network is working on a written directory with pictures and basic information about museums in wesr central and northwest Minnesota. Kathy Enger, the director of NLLN, is working with the MN Historical Society to disseminate this information. How great it would be to incorporate this research with into the MN Museums app.

Since many relatives live in the Twin Cities, I tried the Going Out app. It had many good features. If you look for things to do, you are also offered a list of eating venues nearby. Most of the restaurants have range of information including prices, type of menu, specialties, even food reviews.

This app is particularly helpful for someone who lives out of town (like 380 northwest).
