Calendar Views

The Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources has a nice little calendar application so you can see what is going on, either at ALL of their parks or at one of their parks. I have a suggestion - they should also add a feature to generate a calendar by one of their regions. If you look at their map, you see they break their parks into 7 different geographic regions - it would be nice to be able to generate a calendar by those regions. After all, we might be looking for something to do at some relatively close state park some day, but we don't want to have to do a search on ALL the parks.

Zoinks!

Yes, there's still a lot of local government in Pennsylvania not using the Internet.

In analyzing the quality of e-government services among municipal governments (including boroughs, townships and cities), the most striking finding was how little local governments in rural Pennsylvania use the Internet at all, as measured by the availability of a website. The exception, a county with a strong tourism economy, had a high-level Internet presence.

Lack of broadband is a big part of the issue.
