One thing to do for future flats is something I learned from Mtn Biking. When you put the tire on the rim, always align the label on the tire sidewall to be centered above the valve stem. That way if you take the tire all the way off to inspect it, you can align the tube with the tire to find out where the hole or object in the tire is...
Option 2 is run your bare finger around. When it starts to bleed, you found the object.
I usually try to avoid option 2 :-)
