  • A user can favorite a mural.
  • A user can comment on a mural.
  • A user can ‘share’ a mural. (e.g. facebook/twitter)
  • Data collection capabilities
    → Research and understand needs of mural art community
    → Research public wall spaces in Philadelphia
  • Make separate native app versions of web app
    → iPhone platform
    → Android platform
    → Use PhoneGap for conversion

Future versions:
