2nd speaker

Jonathan Kaufman, @kauffecup will discuss his Election Insights project: http://react.rocks/example/election-insights . The Election Insights (http://electioninsights.mybluemix.net/) app (code here (https://github.com/kauffecup/news-insights)) uses Alchemy News API (http://www.alchemyapi.com/products/alchemydata-news) to get all of the data. Alchemy performs natural language processing on 75,000+ news sources as they are published. It extracts entities and keywords, categorizes the article, performs sentiment analyses, and a whole lot more.

"We do have a parking garage under the building and at that time of night there is some street parking available. We are also right next to the court house silver line station and a five minute walk from south station."
