Lee and Lisa: City-Go-Round lists apps form many mobile platforms including Android and Palm's WebOS. Search for your city then look for apps that list your platform. It also lists websites, many of which will work well from mobile devices.

Hi, Matt, from Ariel's mom, drora. I love the concept of your site. I emailed Ariel the site of an article in the largest North NJ newspaper about the site. I assume you saw it. Otherwise, I'll be happy to send you the address.
Love to all your family. Loved to see you all at the wedding. I'll spread the good word. Great enterprise!

I love the transformational vision of Urban Advantage. I see the potential for beauty wherever I go. They actually create it! We need more resources devoted to transforming public spaces into something beautiful, accessible and inviting!

A husband/wife team in Miami, FL started Architectonica- Andres Duany & Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk. They've made huge strides in bringing New Towns (vs. bland suburban "communi-
ties") all over the U.S. (Seaside, FL; Kentlands, MD), often totally reworking blight-ridden abandoned strip malls, as in Boca Raton, FL, as well as offering immensely-helpful advice to depressed Main Street America. They're gods!
