Note to press people re Happy Friends
- An update on a new product I shipped on Tuesday night called "Happy Friends".
- 1. It's a mailbox-style reader for Twitter.
- 2. It's also an outliner, so you can organize the tweets you read into any kind of list you like, including structure (lists within lists).
- 3. It's a JavaScript app that runs in the browser, coupled with a server app written in node.js. So it's all JavaScript from top to bottom. The server component runs on Heroku.
- 3. It's going to hook into "Fargo", which is a powerful web CMS, among other things. This means it will be possible to publish tweets on web pages with flexibility never-before attainable. And we'll do this being faithful to Twitter's guidelines for publishing tweets. You'll probably want to use this tool in your work.
- 8. Here's a screen shot of Happy Friends in action.
- 5. Here's a narrative of how the product came to be.
- 6. Here's a getting started doc.
- 7. Here's a video that shows how it works.
- 7. If you have questions, my email address is dave@smallpicture.com.
- I hope you like "Happy Friends"! :kiss:
