Hi,

You can consider adding the following. All of them can be completely within
2-3 hours.
1) Creating a Facebook friends heatmap using Graph API and Google Maps.
2) Other Facebook analysers(like gender ratio).
3) Scrape heavens-above.com and get satellite and ISS pass predictions.

Regards,
Sivasubramanyam A
