A pair of applications, one designed by a company in Austin, Texas, and the other a class project from some brainy seniors at Gonzaga University, re available now for tech-minded Bloomies. Both seek to enhance the experience of the 40th annual road race, but they take different approaches. The students created their officially sanctioned application with social media in mind.
