Hackathon project for Pitt, looking to create an SMS based information retreival system to empower those without smartphones to wield the internet's knowledge
It currently has three functionalities:
- Wikipedia query (with paging) using "<query>" or "<query> -<0-99>"
- Tweet reader for any given user (with paging) using "@<username>" or "@<username> -<0-99>"
- Wolfram Alpha querying using "<query> -w"
Looking forward from the Pitt Hackathon weekend, we look to incorporate different language functionalities, increase the robustness of our exisiting uses, and (of course) include more faucets of information.
Huge shout out to guh6 for working with me on this all weekend!
