complexringProject 1. Steemscholarships.com
1) User login page connected through the Steem API to show case on landing page:
a) User's Learning Proposals
b) User's Supported Proposals
2) Filter Content to display in pre-defined categories, e.g. steemscholarships
3) Use witness funds to promote learning


Project 2. Steemgrants.com
1) User login page connected through the Steem API to show case on landing page:
a) User's Learning Proposals
b) User's Supported Proposals
2) Filter Content to display in pre-defined categories, e.g. steemscholarships
3) Use witness funds to support small business endeavors and, in the future, fundamental scientific research.

Project 3. Steem Data Analytics - Data mining on the Steem Blockchain

1) Develop tools for users / witnesses to find good content based on previous voting patterns.
Key areas to mine :
a) users who consistently write quality content
b) users who consistently locate quality content before others

2) Develop tools for researchers to extract real time data analytics for large social networks
-- This is a big money-maker for Twitter. They sell this access (and sometimes
only part of the access to US and Europe-based researchers and who are paying
for this access with public monies.)

Mainly focused on Project 1.

Results:

1) Preparing layout of website, what to be placed on each page, what should be displayed, etc.
2) Several proposals regarding graphic design and front-end development
a) Work in progress in verifying front-end developers' references
b) Deciding on skill-set that is needed
c) Discussions on how the back-end will be interacting with the front-end
3) Working on back-end code to extract the specific information that will be displayed on steemscholarships.com

Goal of this is to provide a set of open-sourced and publicly tools for other web-developers
to interact with the Steem blockchain

Project 2. I expect the results from Project 1 will lead to a near seamless integration to this project.

Project 3. Developing the algorithms that identify users who write quality content and identify it early.
Found a front end-dev and graphics designer within the community who can set up a landing page and login database

5) Constant support on telegram/slack for witnesses/miners/new users issues and questions
1), 2) and 5): ongoing
