Here will lie my notebook for my Señor Project.

The project (currently) is a movie information source. I enjoy using the Internet Movie Database (IMDb), but find there are features that I would like to add to it. Also, it just doesn't work all that well in a disconnected manner.

In an effort to resolve these shortcomings, I will build a system that includes:

  • A web service that will acquire information from sites like IMDb, Amazon, YMDb, or others about movies and make that information available to clients.
  • A client that can connect to the web service and download that information into a local repository and provide features that I have not been able to find available through other means.
  • Possibly, allow the posting back of information to IMDb so that ones list of movies is available without the client.

There are many details to iron out over the next three months, but most seem quite achievable.
