Such as our new loans feeds functionality. Essentially, the widget will generate a feed of your loans in a format which can be gobbled up by i.e. Google Calendar, or many other calendar interfaces. As the Widget says (if it could speak ...) "Never pay another fine!"
We've already started to build in the concept of space into the services we offer - the right thing in the right place (i.e. links out to map locations for library books, integration with map functionality on smartphones).
But in a place as small and busy as Cambridge, time is a more pressing concern than distance, and we think that anything we can offer our users which helps them save time or organise their time will be very popular. This is our first foray into their calendars, but may not be the last.
Now, as for that talking widget ...
That's looks great.
ReplyDeleteHave you included this in the googlecode repository? We were thinking of doing something like this shortly and it would be great not to have to reinvent the wheel. :-)
Hi David,
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if it's in the repository, but we can let you have the code if you like!
cheers
