This looks amazing, Joris.  

Are there plans to make the 101 course available as something people can use outside of a session (slides, video, tutorial microsite…?)

Cheers,
-Z

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/

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.
