Bryce on Technology

I’ve been noodling about an online program I’ve been wanting to write but haven’t yet had the time. Since a lot of people are reading this lately, I was thinking I’d ask for some input.

I want to create a game where we find the lowest gas prices in town. I can create a map where you enter your zip code. The map will show you local gas stations and the current prices they’re offering. You can enter your address and your work address and see gas prices on your route home. That would be kinda cool right? The one thing is that it would have to depend on people entering the prices they see. There’s no place that publishes such information.

This is still just kind of an idea that’s floating around my head. Let me know if you think this would be fun/useful.
