After a couple of weeks polishing existing projects nudging towards new releases, and @shiftkey getting up to [some](http://instagr.am/p/I0MLz8tL5K/)[shenanigans](http://instagr.am/p/IyQNjNtL1X/) at Codemania over the weekend, the gang are back and looking for more coding fun.

This idea started out from a conversation over the weekend about how cryptic some Australian lingo can be. A word I'd thrown into a tweet had completely thrown the recipient and they had trouble understanding what I had said.

I started throwing around possible solutions to the problem - urban dictionary came to mind, for example - but the existing solutions didn't quite fit for the scenario.

After mulling over the solution and searching for cool domain names over a quiet drink, I decided to call it a night and start coding a solution.

The Code52 guys had done a number of web projects so far this year, but these have been running on .NET. I wanted to push the envelope and try something different for this week.

Yes, NodeJS is [so hot right now](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CV_hDyfmEw4), so its not like we're doing something very radical. But I know many people are curious about how to get started and how to build an app with Node.

So we're going to spend a week building a Node app and you can follow along (or even get involved)!

The project structure has started on [GitHub](https://github.com/Code52/saywat) and the [Trello board](https://trello.com/board/saywat/4f7974869bf90505711b92f8) has some initial tasks which are small enough to be started if people are curious. Got some ideas? There's people in the [JabbR](http://jabbr.net/#/rooms/code52) room to discuss ideas with.
