Team meeting #1

Project team is formed on the workshop today, under the team name “Unbalanced”.

Team members:

Lyndon Moore

Jasmine Kazlaukas

Hanfei Lin (Felix)

Lucinda O’Brien

Team Facebook group, team Google Drive folder were set, for members to communicate and share the files. This blog would be used to record the progress of the project. Every member was given the full access to the blog to view, edit, and create content on the blog. The blog is also expected to use for submitting the project proposal (due week 7).

After the first team meeting, as all the member had generated different ideas on the project, the initial brainstorming idea for the project is to create a mobile first web based application where users create profiles to track their filter bubble. The more they read on a certain topic the more they level up in that area, eventually becoming experts in their friend circles. On the regard of feasibility and complexity, we decided to make thorough research before our next meeting.

The focus of the research varied from different member of the group:

Felix to look at bootstrap

Lyndon to look at media aggregators

Lulu - Dilemma

Jasmine - Audience
