My slide presentation can be seen here: http://a.parsons.edu/~lucis270/interface/research.html

Since the crowded subway cars led to population control which led to something that simply didn't interest me anymore (not that serious), I decided last week to take a completely different approach to this project.

I have recently started a nightlife promotion company called www.CelebrateMyBirthday.com. I have used many things that I have learned just from Bootcamp and in my current Co-Lab class, Internet Famous, to make this a very popular site (at least thats the goal).

It would be rather interesting to promote these weekly parties with a political twist. Many party go-ers are young. There are plenty of crowds of people, but how do you know if they are registered to vote? This next month so very important because of the elections going on, therefore I would like to get everybody that goes to these parties to register.

Since the neighborhood that my current parties are mostly Latin, I can target this market and have voter registration forms in english and spanish while they wait on line to get in.

So registering to vote is one thing, but what about the other political issues? So how about I ask everybody that books their birthday through our site what political issues they care about? I can then have some of the proceeds of their party go towards that cause that they care about!
