Every Monday we announce a category to help guide your ideas for what to build, and you have one week (or sometimes two) to build and submit your project.  The day after the deadline, we'll announce the winner and send them a Netbook, and any other prizes from our contest partners.

If you are a Twitter user, you can receive automated voice calls for wait times at Washington State Ferries terminals and northbound Canadian border crossings by sending a direct message to @wsdot. You can send a direct message either from Twitter or from your phone via SMS. Include the terminal or border route id, and the phone number you would like to receive the call back on, and we'll send it to you.

GroupCall allows twitter users to host and manage a group conference call with a few simple clicks. Designed for group instruction, where one user speaks and the audience comments/participates via twitter. The call owners can unmute other participants if desired.

Week #2 - Music Monday by Mike Ivanov

Music Monday is the long-running tradition of posting your favorite songs on Twitter so that others can discover interesting new music.  My app lets you listen to tweets that contain MP3s.  You can skip songs you don't like so much, and it keeps a list of everything that was played and what you liked.
