Romancing the Square

Met today with Linda Guttman of Best Friends Cocoa.  Talked about driving our ice cream truck (a.k.a. Valentine Van) up and down Mass. Ave. between Arlington and Back Bay, or the South End and Lexington, selling or giving away her cocoa.  Eager to get the truck on the road for Valentine's Day so we can ask local residents of squares around greater Boston -- Harvard Square, Central Square, Kendall Square, Davis Square, Inman Square, etc. -- what they LOVE about their neighborhoods.  Surprised to learn that the phrase "Romancing the Square" has been used online in reference to Pioneer Square in Seattle, Washington.  Maybe residents of Boston can invite residents of Seattle to participate in a virtual love fest, both describing or mapping what they love about their cities.  

 

Why not let other communities participate in RomancingTheSquare.com, too?  Maybe we can collaborate with other mapping sites doing Valentine's promotions to create a "folksonomy" of tags or things people love about their neighborhoods and communities, as discussed in this blog post on ChangeAgents.ning.com.

 

Hope to do other whimsical things with Valentine's Day themes, like expanding our Marriage Proposal Map.
