Formulating Ideas

Ok, now that we have a bit of practical data I can begin to see where we can go with this. yesterday i began to come up with a few ideas on where to go and looked into some similar applications.

Facebook is a natural homeground for dealing with people, and from what i gather the application runs inside facebook itself, so If the application isn't too big this is perfect.

Twitter is another web 2.0 hit, there's lots of potential and i need to spend time today on some of the ways we can go with it

There's also the possibility of a web-based application, a little creative javascript to make some sliders and find out how much students are enjoying areas, then simply ask them to complete the short form at certain times of the day.

The Idea of raising awareness by sending out SMS messages could work, but If awareness isn't a problem like it seemed before, then there's perhaps a more effective way to spend time

Either way so far a web application definately looks like it's where the project's headed.

Today I'll be looking for other alternatives, mobile applications and will write up a pro's/cons list of a few things.

The problem to consider today is again how doable an application is, and how appropriate it is.
