Exciting news + an iPhone/iPad app coming to 'The Lunch Belle'

Dear readers,

The time has *finally* come for a bigger, better, and much more user-friendly 'Lunch Belle.'  When I began this website in July 2007, I was a computer novice in every sense of the word.  Hell, I thought that HTML was an abbreviation for "hot male."  Luckily, those days are behind me; I've come a long way, and I'm proud to say that I've single-handedly managed every aspect of 'The Lunch Belle'...until now.

This past July, I celebrated my website's fourth birthday.  However, for the past three of those four years, I've stumbled around wondering, "How do I take 'The Lunch Belle' to the next level?  How do I keep up with the pace of technology?  How can I make this site as user-friendly and as helpful as possible for my audience?"  After plenty of unsuccessful Google searches and other failed attempts, I decided to take a back seat, hoping that it, whatever "it" may be, would come to me.

Well, sometimes, things just fall in to your lap.  And, in my particular case, something very recently fell in to mine.  As in one-month-ago, recently.  An old colleague, who just so happens to be a software developer, propositioned me about the idea of creating an iPhone/iPad application for my website.  "Of course!"  I exclaimed.  We met up in person and discovered that after scrolling through my website together, aside from just creating these applications, there was so much more that we could do to and with 'The Lunch Belle!'  Pretty exciting, right?  

Just so you know, there's a lot of work going on behind the scenes here at 'The Lunch Belle.'  I am so thrilled to say that I will finally be able to bring you, my dear readers, an iPhone and iPad application, in addition to a much more user-friendly website.  I've been waiting for a long time to see this day near.  Now, before I let you go, I have a couple of questions:

• What features would you like to see on 'The Lunch Belle' mobile application?
• Do you own an iPhone and/or an iPad?
• In general: what, in your opinion, would make this website more user-friendly/easier to navigate?
  • Are you able to find what you're looking for in a reasonable amount of time?
• Do you have any other questions/comments?

Please let me know your thoughts/answers.  I'd love, love, love to hear from you!  Thank you all for keeping me going for the past 4+ years.  Here's to many, many more!  Cheers!

Until we eat again,

The Lunch Belle
