Frappr Tool
Just wanted to say "thanks" to everyone who has put themselves on the Frappr map at the bottom of the page. Every once in a while, Leo and I will watch it "play" and talk about who it is in Chicago, Istanbul, Mount Laurel, and more that stopped in for a visit. In case you don't know it, I experiment with a LOT of tools like that, partly out of a desire to "keep up" with technology, an partly out of a love of learning. I have too many accounts to manage effectively, a distinct disadvantage to my attempt to try out everything, but I'm going to start a list of things I've tried as a comment to this item, in case you are interested. Feel free to add your experiences to the list.
