Idea Background
• Facebook is currently the largest online social networking site, with over 250 million active users
• Facebook recently released the Facebook Connect API, allowing web developers to utilize user identities, friends, distribution, and integration

Idea Background (cont.)
• Currently, there are many collaborative music environments available to users
• Some environments are software-based and downloadable
• Others are web-based and use uploading and streaming technology

Opportunity
Currently, there is no web application that fuses a collaborative music program with Facebook, the world’s leading social networking website

Goals
Overall Goal: To implement a web application which draws on user accounts from Facebook, allows music publication from users, and supports cross-user listening and other collaborative activities.
Specific Goals:
• e-Commerce planning and projection
• Business plan development
• Full code implementation of application
• Extensive User Acceptance testing
• Release of application by middle of Spring Semester

Current System Implementation
• The application currently plays music allowing play, pause, next, and fast forward features.
• Playlist creation supported
• The Facebook Connect feature is currently available in this environment and successfully links the two applications.
Currently, Joe has developed a significant portion of the code in Adobe Flex and implemented on a test web environment:

Q & A
Q: How much of my time would you require for advising this project?A: Not much at all. We would take you out to lunch bi-monthly for our meetings to discuss progress.
Q: Aren’t you two already in capstone groups?A: We are both a part of large teams and do not see ourselves as integral assets to our current teams. We have also not invested enough time or effort for a switch to be a problem.
Q: Capstone projects require a client, who is yours?A: This would mainly be an entrepreneurial venture with users being clients. This would give us an unparalleled opportunity to set our own goals, develop leadership skills, and actually own a project.
Q: How would you be graded on this capstone?A: There are many possibilities for grading based on specific goal deliverables, user frequency after implementation, etc. If accepted as a capstone, we will propose a potential grading rubric within a week.
