Project: RESTClient is a simple, Python + wxWidgets Desktop application for talking to RESTful web services. It is designed to fill a gap in existing offerings by offering support for GET/POST/PUT/DELETE, making it a useful tool when exploring RESTful web services which use a wider range of HTTP verbs. http://restclient.org/

Projects at Dev House Boston 3:

 

Name: Jack Hodgson

Email: jack at da4 dot com

Project Idea: I want to take 2 or 3 of the popular websites with APIs and do a mashup which combines them in some interesting way. eg. a facebook app showing a google map of all my twitter followers' locs.

Name: Paul Irish

Email: paul dot irish at gmail

Project Idea: Social network portability is OH-SO-HOT right now. (wiki page at microformats.org, brad fitzpatrick's ideas) Right now everyone is still brainstorming, but I'd love to get the ball rolling with some code. Perhaps what's needed is a dynamic UI for organizing your contacts into different friend categories? Not sure yet, but this this movement makes more sense than OpenID; let's give it an interface that will actually make it succeed.

Project Idea: Write Haskell APIs for AWS. Start with S3, move on to EC2 and SQS if we have the time.

Skills Needed: Haskell.

Name: Ivan Kirigin

Email: ivan.kirigin+devboston@gmail.com

Project Idea: I've found that most people think you can't do image processing in javascript. So with that idea out, I have two others. One is a dead simple calendar that hopes to emulate paper. 5 text fields for each day in a month, instant ajax-based storage, user accounts. Less than simple would be a flash transparent layer that allowed for drawing lines over the whole area. This shouldn't take long. The other idea is back to image processing, in building a wiki to showcase how to manipulate images in ActionScript. The goal is to get more people making front ends capable of doing intelligent things with images. The project entails configuring a mediaWiki with flash support and initializing the community around it.

Skills Needed: Javascript, Django. Flash.

Name: Steven Bao

Email: steve{at}stevenbao.com

Project Idea: Starting and hopefully finishing building ArciSQL, a central SQL backup system.

Skills Needed: PHP, MySQL, JS+Ajax, HTML, CSS, crazy ninja database security, SSL

Name: Dan Grover

Email: dan.grover at wonderwarp.com

Project Idea: Prototyping an idea I had for visualizing projects/todos as a graph for quick review

Skills Needed: Java, Processing, information visualization

Name: Drew, Jeff, Sky, Matt, Bryan

Email: many....

Project Idea: "NewsGraf" - a new way to visualize news feeds (or maybe an old way to visualize new news sources). Rather than just stick a bunch of links in a list, display items in a newspaper-like fashion. Popular stories get larger headlines near the top, etc. http://code.google.com/p/newsgraf/

Skills Needed: Python, Django, REST, HTML, CSS


Name: Mark Soper

Project Idea: Blog recommendations informed by social bookmarking

Idea Summary: Many blog readers subscribe to dozens or even hundreds of feeds, regularly filtering thousands of blog posts to discover interesting new content. This process is difficult and time consuming. Organizing and retrieving old content over time is also problematic. We believe that the information contained in a social bookmarking system like Delicious can be valuable in solving these problems, and suggest a team project o design and implement algorithm(s) that filter blog content and/or make recommendations for blog content based on information from the Delicious REST API.

Skills Needed: Algorithms, XML, Any programming language
