The Gates Fountation has released a valuable report about why we need Internet in libraries more than ever. The report is more fascinating then the latest Grisham and more valuable than all the Harry Potter books combined. Read it and learn:

AgentMatch
Have you wrote a book, and need to find an agent to sell it? There's now an App for that! I hope to update this App and my other (LibFind) next month.

My First iPhone App
Everyone is creating iPhone app these days; I figured it was about time to learn what it was all about. I spent the past two weeks learning the code and the features. I'm still learning.
Last week I started developing my first app...a very simple one to help you find the address and number of the libraries within your county. The first version only includes California. I hope to have an update up very soon with additional states.
The app is called LibFind, and today it was approved for sale. It can be purchased here (all money goes to paying for a poor librarian!).
I'm hoping to have some advance features implemented as I learn them. Below are a few screenshots.
For those interested in developing apps, it's not as hard as you think; it takes a lot of time and patience (and a Mac computer), but Apple offers plenty of tutorials.
