So yesterday when we had our meeting in CSB 115, we started out trying to figure out how to hack into facebook so that we could change the colors and style of individual facebook pages. After looking at AppJet.com and the Facebook developers page, we decided that we could think of a project that would be more suitable for Facebook's regulations. We brainstormed a couple ideas, including games and weather reports, but finally decided on our new application.
In my first year of college, my roommate would collect Snapple bottle caps for the fun facts found on the bottom of the Snapple top. She would tape them up to the wall, and if she found one that she thought was funny or appropriate for me, she would give them to me to tape onto my side of the wall. This was our inspiration for our application, TopsBottom.
It will show fun facts, such as "a Goldfish's attention span is 3 seconds", on an icon similar to Snapple's glass bottle lids. The user will be able to select which factoid he/she wants to give to his/her friends or keep to display on his/her own profile. The idea is similar to other facebook applications, such as the gifts or bumper stickers. I'm excited :)
