=== Current System ===
For ease of getting a large dataset to play with, we will use Twitter for this example, although the same system can be used for other message channels, like Email, SMS & RSS.

Test Server to see User Interface:
* http://demo.eden.sahanafoundation.org/eden/msg/

Install on your own system:
* Install Eden
* Install the [https://pypi.python.org/pypi/TwitterSearch/ TwitterSearch] library
* Follow the [UserGuidelines/Messaging#TwitterSearch User Guidelines] to get a Twitter OAuth account & use this to search

Relevant documentation:
* DeveloperGuidelines/Messaging
* DeveloperGuidelines/Messaging/Channels

Note: Documentation for both end-users & devs could use improvement
* feel free to dive in!

=== Projects ===
There are 2 projects that we can work on during this session:
(A) Some simple enhancements to the current interface
(B) Creating a 'Human Intelligence Tasking' module to allow the processing of these messages to be divided up amongst a lot of workers
