I'm building a tool to take Instagram posts, parse the descriptions, and spit out a calendar.

I don't like browsing Instagram but a lot of events I'm interested in are only posted there. Instagram is very ephemeral, and because of the way the feed works it's very easy to miss posts if you don't browse constantly.

It works fairly well already though it still has a few false positives. It works on simple rules because machine learning would be too laborious to train. Still, I use it regularly and it's very handy to see what's happening around town.
