24 alternatives to Discover books, movies, apps and songs from your Twitter Feed

Ankit Ranka and I built this for ourselves and it was kind of useful, so we decided to package it up and see if others find it useful too. Ankit is an avid reader, but never new what book to read on the weekend. I'm always trying to find a new movie on Friday night to unwind. I usually end up spending 30-45 minutes looking for a movie, and by the time I find one I don't feel like watching a movie anymore! We built ScoutFeed to monitor our Twitter feeds and help us find books and movies that people we follow tweet about. It turns out people recommend apps and songs on twitter too, so we…

ScoutFeed monitors a user's Twitter feed to surface recommendations for books, movies, apps, and songs shared by people they follow. It's designed for anyone tired of spending excessive time searching for entertainment… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes. Discover books, movies, apps and songs from your Twitter Feed launched in 2012; newer entries below may have overtaken it.

    Hi everyone, For the past couple months I've been working on a website with two main features: - https://book.sv - put in a list of books and get recommendations on what to read next from a model trained on over a billion reviews - https://book.sv/intersect - put in a list of books and find the users on Goodreads who have read them all (if you don't want to be included in these results, you can opt-out here: https://book.sv/remove-my-data) Technical info available here: https://book.sv/how-it-works Note 1: If you only provide one or two…

    Hey HN, cofounder of Readwise here. We've been working on this cross-platform reader app for about 2 years, excited to finally share it in public beta. Probably the most notable thing that makes Reader unique is that it supports almost any content type you could want to save/read/highlight: * web pages * emails/newsletters * PDFs * ePubs * twitter threads * youtube videos (with transcripts) * RSS feeds With all of your knowledge content in one place, we built powerful reading and highlighting, as well as a bunch of novel triage/organization features, so you can actually…

    Partially inspired by recent discussions on HN and other places. I've made a single-focus site to introduce your friends/colleagues/neighbours/family to RSS and web feeds. https://www.youneedfeeds.com/ The site is meant to give the elevator pitch for feeds, show a newbie what feeds are and how to use them, set them up with a reader, and give them some nice starter content if they want it. So much tastemaking and newsmaking power is concentrated in the hands of Facebook/Reddit/Twitter, but I'm convinced it's because much of the general populace doesn't…

    I got fed up with the news reader apps out there so I decided to make my own. Its a simple concept where it tracks all your favorite news sources for new posts and the social shares it received. Then it ranks it HN/Reddit style using social shares as upvotes. It's not meant to be alternative to HN, just a focused way to track your favorite sources. Please try it out and let me know what do you think, http://telescope.surf/ Note: you can do 'Add to Homescreen' on mobile to make it as an app. Please leave a feedback or any feature wishlist you may have. Thanks!
