I have a cool web project idea. It may not bring you money but it will be very satisfying to you if you are a fan of Swami Vivekananda. I want to collect all the newpaper mentions of Swami Vivekananda from 1902 and earlier, scan the relevant section(s) and manually (or with high quality ocr but verified for accuracy) provide text of the news. This will be a tremendous resource for anyone interested in the life and works of Swamiji. The best part is that you can do all of it without leaving your computer and without any extra hardware. I will show you how.
