Why Tagging Singapore ?1. Tagging all important places

in Singapore.2. The main advantage is

allowing user access to dynamic content on the map itself.

3. Aimed at combining the use of gothere.sg and other location based content delivering websites in Singapore.

SpecificationsPlatform : Google Apps EngineProgramming Language: Python (for data-manipulation and mashup design) & Java (for data gathering)API’s : Google Maps API ( for getting coordinates and name of places in Singapore ) gothere.sg( for rendering the collected information on the map )Framework: Google Apps Engine Python SDK v1.2.3 ( for backend management ) & jQuery v1.3.2( for frontend data-manipulation and AJAX support )

Key Features

Providing dynamic content for geographical locations… no more hassles thinking about movie timings theater

nearest to the shopping mall your date… ☺

Integrating gothere.sg map & direction service with public websites, etc bringing more to the techie public of

Singapore

Easily customized ... Better chance for developers to

focus on Idea’s

Using cloud platform makes it easier to scale, e.g. for government websiteSave$ + Performance = SG Govt. ☺

A Web Based Device Control System

My First Project on Internet Technologies made in 2005-06.

Supervised By:Mr. Vinay Singh

IdeaThe main idea of the project was to allow the user to control electrical appliances from a remote location using Internet. The idea was inspired by a Cartoon Series Mole & His Friends.
