Once HBS has a box

three steps:

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

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.

Once HBS has a box

Arrows and dots

it's a little too barebones now.

maybe Harvard IP range

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

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)

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

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. :)

make it work nicely with the framework

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

but it looked fine before the django refactor

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

the thing at http://awesomebox.io

For those libraries without an ISBN search

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

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

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

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

easily embed an awesome search into any page

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

we should rework our twitter oauth logic

some bugs in ie

(the widget and maybe password reminder emails need this)

This fails:

0316359440

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

Worked fine before the django move.

Local storage?
Different URL for each station?

so library staff can scan without full admin control

children: "juvenile"

maybe explode on space?

eliminate all letters but 'x'?

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

http://hollis.harvard.edu/?itemid=%7Clibrary/m/aleph%7C011549638

maybe include:

• video
• in the news/mentions around the web
