On our first meeting (01/03/2012) we introduced each other and our skills that each of us has. Furthermore we discussed some ideas that help make a good start and contribute to thoughts for our next meeting.

Additionally, our mentor Connor McCabe provided us with some very useful information regarding the project. He also guided us on our ideas and offered us some useful references.

Our second meeting (06/03/2012) was brainstorming. We discussed some ideas further which were proposed in our first meeting and derived some more interesting ideas

Here is a list of the ideas that were offered by our team members:

1. Unified platform of social networks.
2. A group finder application based on preferences.
3. An application for organizing parties with the help of a map.
4. Forwarding text message system for certain groups.
5. A web based application that different people could contribute for creating a painting, shared canvas application.
6. Partner matching algorithm.

And some of the above ideas were further discussed and analysed by the members of our group. The following images are depicting two of the above ideas.
