RepreWho – Homework 3 – weeksc

Homework 3 – Uncens.us
Uncens.us is a map-based demographics browsing tool. Using an API from infochimps.com, the application connects a user to data from the US Census Bureau’s 2009 American Community Survey, grouped at a census tract level.

bischetw Top Hacker News
My app doesn’t really do much that looks technically complicated and, as far as I’m concerned, it shouldn’t be technically complicated (but for me it was).

HW3: GrabATweet
With this assignment I aimed for simplicity to reduce the number of possible issues I could run into. I decided to uses Twitter’s RESTAPI to do a simple pull of a single status. To “spice” things up, so to speak, I decided to make the tweet random and allow the user to grab as many […]
