DuoMesh Project Blog

Today I have settled on my project idea, which is one of the ideas I have been thinking about over the summer.

“Social Networking Website for RSS feeds and Mobile content”

Really Simple Syndication (RSS for short) is what most website use to allow their viewers keep track of their latest publications without having to manually go to their website and see what’s changed.

I hope to build a fully functioning website that will allow users to add/browse different RSS feeds and create a custom page where they can keep track of all their most important websites. Then I will allow users to access their custom page via a mobile device.

I have also chosen Paul Kyberd as personal project tutor as he has experience with web applications and databases so hopefully I can use his expertise to process with my ideas and any technical requirements.

I have setup this blog to act as my final year project journal/log in order to track my progress, development and thoughts throughout the next 6 months. It uses the WordPress engine which is a highly customisable self-hosted personal publishing platform.

At the moment the blog hasn’t been customised to any design theme yet, but I will be giving it the same styling, look and feeling as the final project.

I have been brainstorming for the pass few weeks to gauge what area I am good in and what sort of things will push my creativity, coding and theoretical skills.

So far I have been working around the idea’s of Web 2.0 and all the social networking concepts it brings with it.
