Go Do It With Goby

Posted on November 21, 2009

GobySometimes I feel like a little kid on weekend: “Mom, I’m bored, what can I do?” Often my wife and I pore over the broadsheets or dive into our dogeared hiking guides. Sometimes we sail off into the uncharted bitstreams of Google, clicking through page after page of irrelevant links. Point is, we sometimes waste so much time looking for something to do that it becomes too late to do it.

Goby is not so much a search engine as a “do” engine. It works on the forehead-slapping premise that people often go to the net to make decisions not just to access a pile of poorly-sorted data. With Goby, you simply type in what you want to do, where and when. I keyed in “hike” and my location and immediately got eleven pages of nearby treks, complete with maps.

Too nice a day to be at a computer. I’m outta here. http://www.goby.com
