the 404 page isn't working on the prod instance. fix.

create an install file that contains a note about copying the .htaccess.example and about the etc/master.cfg.example

make the flixster link smaller. make the contact links bigger?

Maybe not recognized as XML? Not sure.

when a user logs out, do they go to the right place? when they login, do the go to the right place?

Search "swamp" Swamp Thing appears
Search "swamp thing" nothing appears

three steps:

1. get the code
2. get a box (link to cabinet maker)
3. get a sign (link to our Illustrator file? schematics?

Local storage?
Different URL for each station?

Looks like the title of this book was too long to fit the author's name:

so it was pushed into the next tweet:

making Paul Gready, Director of the Centre for Applied Human Rights at the University of York, a member of ABBA. :)

it's a little too barebones now.

For those libraries without an ISBN search

make it work nicely with the framework

Once HBS has a box

maybe Harvard IP range

Website
PDF?

Don't want it on your page? Don't scan it.
Too tired to scan anymore? Hide the box.
Don't have a box? Use anything (Kleenex box, coworker's lunchbox)

(the widget and maybe password reminder emails need this)

but it looked fine before the django refactor

Once HBS has a box

we dont' send the scan confirm back until twitter confirms our post. grossout. parallelize this.

This fails:

0316359440

http://library.minlib.net/search/?searchtype=i&searcharg=0316359440

Worked fine before the django move.

maybe include:

• video
• in the news/mentions around the web

the thing at http://awesomebox.io

that is glued to the bottom of the box. contains username, pasword, and urls

so library staff can scan without full admin control

some libraries don't have a contact email or a webpage. make these things optional (they show up in the about section)

maybe explode on space?

eliminate all letters but 'x'?

we should rework our twitter oauth logic

If you put an awesome box in your library, this is what you get.

This page might include:

• shot of scan page
• links to demo a scan/view results on sandbox.awesomebox.io
• widet demo (of things on the sandbox?)
• Register form
• Small API docs

easily embed an awesome search into any page

in a few cases, we're printing error messages (in try/catch blocks). we should logging these, not printing them.

Arrows and dots

the add org form, the edit org form, and the add branch form aren't very slick. they should do a better job of error checking.
