  2. Vision • Craigslist meets eBay • Designed to make it easy for people to find others for specific jobs, or alternatively, for people to get work • Buyers can list products/services they need • Sellers compete by offering lower prices or better services • Buyer is given a list of offers and can choose • Example: Bob needs someone to paint his house, and won’t pay more than $50 • Steve will paint it for $40 • Mark will do the same job for $30 • Roger will both paint the house and reshingle the roof for $100 • Filter listings by location/distance • Automatic filtering of illegal entries based on key words • Rating of buyers and sellers (to ensure workers get paid and buyers get what they pay for)

  3. Software Architecture • Components • Web server / PHP (web page itself) • Database • Account management • Listing interaction • Content filtering • Sample Content, Categories, etc. • Location based filtering • Ads Apache HTML PHP MySQL

  4. Challenges and risks • Infrastructure • Front end needs to sync up with the back end • If they’re at different degrees of completion, you don’t know whether your code is working or not. • Interdependence between modules • Possible to create mock-up webpages, but the user: • can’t test the webpage until the database is ready, and • can’t test the database until there is content to put in it • Legal concerns • unwanted “services” • minimum wage exploitation
