The first person that was interviewed plays Ultimate Frisbee at MIT. He indicated that getting people together for games and forming teams on the field were not very problematic. Low tech solutions like sending announcements over a mailing list or just picking 2 captains to choose teams worked well in practice. Additionally, common problems like imbalanced teams were again often easily fixed informally if one side was consistently performing better.
A The second person that was interviewed expressed his frustration with existing "location-aware" tools. He mentioned that he has high hopes for Apple's "Find My Friends" app but felt that it did not meet his expectations. The application was very strict in preserving your privacy to the point that no one really used it. The social and "fun" aspects of the application were somewhat lost. It is difficult to add friends since it requires multiple steps of authentication and approval, it is difficult to quickly use since the application requires your Apple password whenever it starts, and you can always choose to hide your location from your "followers" (but still see their locations) thus removing any social incentive to provide information about yourself.

Task Analysis
Determine the tasks of the problem you've chosen, analyze their characteristics, and answer the general questions about tasks we asked in lecture. Think about other questions you should ask that might be relevant to your particular domain. You should find and analyze at least 3 high-level tasks. If you can't find 3 interesting tasks, then your problem may be too small to serve as a good project, and you should rethink it.
