We have three main types of tasks that are possible in the site. The first is to post new news items. These can be events, articles, or simple discussions. The second is to navigate available news items. This can be done by clicking on the desired topic, such as art, music, computers, etc, and scrolling through the available items. Finally, we want the users to be able to discuss the items. Thus, the user needs to be able to enter the comments section of an item and read other users' comments and post her own.
The following are three possible scenarios for our tasks.

: Amy's Birthday Bash
Amy would like to make an event for her upcoming 21st birthday bash. She has rented out the VIP lounge at Estate and would like it to be the best birthday ever. As such, she needs many cool MIT students to come, and so she would like to publicize the event as much as possible. Since everyone at MIT has a Beaver Buzz account, she decided that she’d post an event on Beaver Buzz.
She logs logged into her account, which she has made previously. She then selects to create a new event. She is prompted for a time and a date for the event. She enters that it will begin at 10:00 PM, and that it will take place 6/12/2011. In addition, she fills out an optional event textbox describing her event as the “event of the millennium.” After posting, she goes to check the event schedule and sees that it has been added. Satisfied, Amy logs off.
