The Mapping Militants Project identifies patterns in the evolution of militant organizations in specified conflict theatres and provides interactive visual representations of these relationships. Relationships are traced in interactive maps, which provide visual representations of how those relationships change over time. The maps are also linked to profiles, which compile open-source news and data on militant organizations to provide a comprehensive, fully cited report on each group.

sounds interesting. I especially like the caching for offline reading. one question: how does this impact battery life since the app automatically refreshes the stories? is there a way to turn that off / manually refresh?

I'm a web developer specializing in Ruby on Rails and JavaScript. I studied mechanical engineering at Vanderbilt University and received both a B.E. degree and an M.S. degree there with research in wind turbine design. After school, I moved out to the bay area and worked for 1.5 years in technical support. A few development projects in, I decided coding was my true interest, and left my job to pursue web development as a full-time career.

I've since been developing RoR and Backbone apps with an emphasis on clean code and intuitive user interaction.
