I have been wanting to write a Twitter/Jabber bot. So I have created a simple twitter app called “Note To Self.” Basically it helps you track those “Note To Self” moments we have in life. Here’s how it works:
- Follow @note2self on twitter
- Send note2self a direct message with “hello” (this will “activate” you).
- From then on, when you tweet “@note2self blah blah…” it will be tracked on the website, which is http://jazzychad.com/twitter/note2self/
It has been pointed out that there are similar services already in existence. That’s ok. The goal was to learn how to make a real-time twitter bot and make a simple, fun application for it. Perhaps in the future I will create something more complicated. In the mean time, I would love feedback on additions or ways to make this current project better!
