Summary

Our team at 37signals wants to build a tool that posts Google Alerts directly into their Campfire chat client, and they're now hosting a contest for developers to create an open-sourced solution using Postmark's Inbound processing. The goal is to automate the process of receiving email alerts from Google Alerts and posting them to Campfire, with configurable rooms and keywords. To qualify, submissions must be open-sourced, hosted on Github, and include tests and work correctly with both Google Alerts and Campfire. Developers can submit their solutions until June 11th, and if selected, they'll receive 25,000 free Postmark credits.
