Is there a reason we should be focusing on this particular type of application? I don't mean to be pessimistic, but I think suggesting people get started on an app with only 2 weeks to go in the challenge is asking a bit much. Maybe there are some teams out there that have been working on this kind of thing for awhile. They have a much better chance at winning.
