Pessoal, acho que vale a pena inscrever-se nesse curso, caso alguém
esteja interessado. É uma boa oportunidade para quem conheceu o
PyBossa num evento de julho, que ocorreu na Casa de Cultura Digital,
que contou com a presença do Francois Grey, Daniel Lombraña Gonzales e
o grupo do INPE que desenvolve o Forestwatchers.

O limite para inscrições é essa semana aqui.

Dear all,

recently, the Pybossa team has been working very hard which has led to
Crowdcrafting.org, a free, open-source crowd-sourcing and
micro-tasking platform. It enables people to create and run projects
that utilise online assistance in performing tasks that require human
cognition such as image classification, transcription, geocoding and
more. Today I have published a blog on OpenGLAM about PDF
transcription: http://openglam.org/2012/11/28/using-pybossa-for-transcribing-cultural-works/

It is a very easy tool to create your own application, but getting
started can be a bit tricky. Therefore I am very excited that Daniel
Lombrana Gonzales of the Citizen Cyberscience Center has kindly
offered to give a lecture via Google Hangout. We will start here with
the absolute basics of installing Pybossa on your machine and creating
a first simple app. We will start in the afternoon and work for 2-3
hours.

I have set up a Doodle to find a good timeslot in the coming weeks for
this. If you want to join, please indicate your availability.

Hope that some of you can join and that we can see the first apps
appearing soon!

All the best,
