Installation of OpenBlight Dashboard on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (64bit)

The install process is rather complicated, so I would recommend scanning through this page first and making sure you understand what's going on.

1) Grab the files.

git clone git://github.com/codeforamerica/openblight.git

2) Install PostGIS.

Week 1 report

The first week was mostly administrative, but the week starting Monday June 11 was when the program started for real. I met the 'fellows' at Code for America and we were sorted into different teams of our choosing, to work on various projects which CfA are currently supporting. I was teamed up with one other GSoC intern and two fellows to work on Honolulu Answers, a search portal for government services in Honolulu (much like the new www.gov.uk)

Events

Informal discussion with former Code for America fellow Scott Silverman who now works as a frontend developer for www.airbnb.com. He gave career advice and shared his experiences working with startups vs larger companies. Talked about the flat organisational structure of startups and orgs. Like how working at CfA allowed for greater autonomy and skillsharing, but it did lead to sometimes not knowing what to do etc. (He worked in a 'cubicle' in a large company previously).
'Big data' workship with a data scientist from Tw

ActiveRecord callbacks to update the keywords and wordcounts tables

Put the method currently in the RailsNLP module directly in the Article model
TDD the refactoring of that method into several smaller methods, which:

When an article is created

Analyse all the text fields and parse them into a frequency map of words. { <word_i> => <freq_i>, [...], <word_n> => <freq_n> }
For each word in text, kw = Keyword.find_or_create_by_name(word).(i)
Create a new Wordcount row with :keyword_id => kw.id, :article_id => article.id and count as the frequency of the keyword in the article.

TODO for 20 July 2012

#33003873 // Some searches crash with 'Sorry but something went wrong'
#33003985 // Search offers 'Did you mean?' even when there are no results for the corrected query.
#33074453 // Search for 'Satellite City Hall' returns no results.

	Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
	BY ROBERT FROST

	Whose woods these are I think I know.
	His house is in the village though;
	He will not see me stopping here
	To watch his woods fill up with snow.

	My little horse must think it queer
	To stop without a farmhouse near
