Down in Canyon, the Panhandle Plains Historical Museum is showing off some new technology in the form of Smart Tours.  It's very easy, take your smart phone into the Museum and head to an exhibit.  Dial the phone number they give you, then scan your phone through a bar code.  That will access your phone to their website, which will then tell you everything about the exhibit.  "CANYON, TEXAS -- It's exciting for us, I think it shows that were constantly looking at new ways to improve the exhibit. It enhances visitors experience and make it more interactive and the great thing about it is you can do as much or as little as you want," said Buster Ratliff from the Panhandle Plains Museum.  If your interested in trying this new technology, the Smart Tours are now available starting today at the Panhandle Plains Museum.
