iKidNY — "An App That Embraces Change"


...The $2.99 iPhone/iPod Touch app combines Google Maps with a database of 2000 playgrounds, libraries, restaurants, changing tables and subway elevators in New York.

So, say you’re in the Financial District when your diaper disaster strikes. Touch "find closest to me" in the changing-table category, and then follow the path to the Borders at 100 Broadway...

...Since the app went live, she's been collecting more child-friendly locations from the app's users, making iKidNY a community effort.
