Decision made: simple travel app
Let’s say you travel to Venice and plan to spend 3 days there, but you didn’t have enough time to do some proper research before you left: where to go, what to do, what to see. You’re a 100% spontaneous traveller.
But then you get there and, as you start walking through the city’s super-narrow streets, you tell yourself:
“I wish I knew what are the top 5 things to do in Venice!”
5things
5things (the new iPhone app I’m going to build) is a very simple mobile app that determines your location (you’ll be able to change it if it didn’t pinpoint you correctly) and suggests 5 things to do there.
That’s it and I’ll be the first to use it extensively!

Nice
Where will you get the data from?
Good luck on friday! What time do you start?

I’ll put some data in manually for the Friday version. Later, I’ll probably build a web app to manage it and a webservice to sync the iPhone app periodically.
.
I’m not sure wether to use XML or SQLite for local storage, I’ll have to read some docs
I think I need some good 12 hours of research, planning & work on Friday, so I plan to start early.
