I am a CS student on my second year. So far we had only basic JAVA and SQL courses with hardly any practical applications. For the past 7 days or so I have been getting into learning ASP.NET, C# and SQL, amongst other things without any particular goal in mind. I was testing various components (buttons, labels, gridview, panels etc) and playing out with C# and SQL. Overcoming simple things like formatting strings, issuing SQL calls, using the gridview to get the index of the item that was liked etc was quite a blast :)

One of the features that I am planning to implement later on is limiting amount of votes a user can give per submission. I am guessing I will have to save data in a table where schema would look like username, submissionid, votedupordown and parsing those to allow or disallow access to voting functionality.

One more thing I have in mind is integration of either bing or google maps (depending on whichever gives me the most free queries per month) and SignalR to show in realtime submissions as they come up...

What am I making? I have no idea. This could be nothing or it could be something. Source may be released on github when I'm happy with it, right now it's probably rather messy but I do try to keep it neat.
