Problem Statement
Currently, MIT has two mailing lists that are used to publish the availability of free food or free items that they don't need anymore (but that others might). These mailing lists (free-food and reuse) are useful for these purposes, but it is often difficult to determine salient information regarding which posts are near you, or to decode whether these posts contain what you want (as the subject line is only sometimes useful).
Facets of the current setup that are problematic include:
- It is difficult to determine the geographic relevance of free-food or reuse emails.
- It is often difficult to determine the content of the posts without extensive searching.
Target Users
- The ones that want placeholder pages.
Proposed Solution
Let's not get ahead of ourselves there, pardner.
