Thing 17

#17 Connecting to Community

I tried the Star Tribune "Going Out" app and might be using it this summer to seek out a few new places.  The categories are clear but a bit difficult to browse.  I think going online without using the app is more efficient.





I have used the MPR app and appreciate streaming it in places where a good radio station is difficult to find.






Finding a relevant app for seeking out a "rails to trails" biking routes was difficult.  The TrailLink app allows one free map and then the purchases begin.  This app is created by the non-profit Rails-To-Trails Conservancy - so the in-app purchases are tax deductible.

Gotta love MPR. And interesting about that Trails app. I've never really noticed any non-profit, tax-deductible fremium apps before. Well researched.
