One of the promises I made to myself when I set up this blog was that I would update it about once a week. Clearly, that hasn’t happened here, but once things ease up here a bit, it should be better and I should be able to keep to a more regular schedule.
Anyway, there have been two exciting developments for me personally. The first is that the application I made at Harvard University over the summer has launched! To find it, go to http://stembook.org/ and go to an article (such as this one), and click one of the graph icons. Additionally, my mentor wrote an abstract about StemBook for the International Electronic Publishing Conference, and it was accepted!
Secondly, I presented some of my projects (including the StemBook graph browser) at SI’s expoSItion on Monday. I’m proud to announce that WantKnot, which will be presented at the CHI 2009 conference, won the second place Social Computing award with a prize of $250! Thanks to my teammates for their hard work and dedication, and congrats to all the other winners!
