Example Web Apps

As an early assignment, you will find an example web app, and post a description of it and reaction to it on our forum. Below are more details on finding and posting good examples:

• Finding example web apps
• Definition: these are web apps that run in a browser on any sort of device
• Should be displayable before the entire class if necessary, i.e.:
• On the class PC
• On any device you have, e.g. your laptop, or a tablet that you project using the overhead projector.
• Need not be something no other class members have selected, though uniqueness will be rewarded
• Posting them
• How:
• To forum
• Tag it with #examples.
• Only a few paragraphs are necessary
• Include one image
• Include a link to the example itself
• If others have already chosen your example, focus on new information
• What:
• A tagline: summarize the app in one sentence
• The problem the app addresses
• Why you like or hate this app
• Competing apps, and why this app is better or worse
• A little bit about how this app works
