Project 2

Remember that project 2 is just a live chat wall. Think Facebook wall that updates interactively. In case you didn't want to write the backend yourself, here is a simple django project that covers it. The URLs are /wall/post/ to POST a new message and /wall/posts/ to see messages. The latter supports the GET param last_id to specify that you want all posts after a given message.


Also, think of something cool to make for the final assignment. It's totally open-ended, from a database driven website, to a nifty UI control, to some addition to Prototype (this one is cool because it shows up when you google your name). If you're short on ideas email me and I can help you out.
