My Third Project : Venue
The initial idea was to make another facebook / twitter but features message browsing on a geo map instead of vertical timeline.
This also introduced the rule that nobody is allowed to use picture from their camera-roll…you are only allowed to post whatever from your camera. Surprise? Of course I don’t want to see a picture of The Great Wall posted in Antarctica! All posts must be directly associated to their location, otherwise the whole message map would be nonsense.
I wrote a simple backend from scratch in python with mongoDB and front end again in objective-C, a friend helped me set up the servers, they are located in Australia and France hosting the API and database respectively.
