SO what exactly do we DO with CyberBuzz? Glad you asked.

After all those rules, shall nots, and musts, here's what we're providing all of our users, among other things:

Projects started and supported by Cyberbuzz

Campus Calendar

Ever exapnding and a great campus resource, the campus calendar is supported and updated by departments and organizations (student and non) from across the entire campus.

Course Critique

The initial project, started by a CS senior design class, quickly moved to CyberBuzz to gain speed and support. Many of the utilities CyberBuzz provides Course Critique include database administration, off-campus verification, and speedy statistics dumps from course evaluations.

T-book

Begun by a group of freshmen in Psy1010, the T-book recreates the best of Georgia Tech's tradition of informing incoming freshmen about campus activities and traditions. The T-book moved to CyberBuzz shortly after inception to allow a large group of students to work on a long-term and widley encompassing project while being supported in a stable and multi-user environment.

TeamBuzz

TeamBuzz is successfully supported by CyberBuzz through diligent efforts. From the original creation of the database through current annual updates, the volunteer signup and coordination for all the TeamBuzz projects rely on CyberBuzz. TeamBuzz is one of the most widely known volunteer projects for the entire Georgia Tech community and a shining example of what its students can do both on- and off-line.

Just who, or what, is an "oobleck"?

You, my friend, are woefully uneducated in the creations of Dr. Seuss. For a photograph of "oobleck" in action, consult the good folks at the U.S. government. For background reading, the definitive reference is Bartholomew and the Oobleck, though Expert C Programming: Deep C Secrets provides a comprehensive history of Oobleck, and Mr. Sweet's Class also provides additional information, as does Angie's Third-Grade with Mrs. Greene!. You can order Oobleck of your very own for only $30, plus shipping and handling. If you're cheap, rumor has it you can make your own; after hours of arduous experimentation, I personally recommend you use 8 boxes cornstarch and 13 cups water, along with 2 bottles of green food coloring. If you're easily satisfied and don't need much, the Coleman Lantern people have an abbreviated recipe. Whatever you do, however, do not forget The Laws of Oobleck!
