Probably not enough time during this hackfest, but a lot of civic apps leverage Twitter to do things like geo-locate tweets and pics on a map, like http://artmapper.org/

I don't know how useful pics are but tweets around an event's hashtag or username would be awesome.

Wondering how hard this would be to do, to let the administrator enter a hashtag or username when setting up an event and then plot tweets from the twitter api.
