Products that do what Use Twitter as CLI for any *other* app does
Ever noticed that the 140 chars tweet sometimes feels like CLIing? Me too. So I made CtrlTwit with which you can use twitter as CLI to any other app (that has an API). For example: you can like an instagram photo simply by replying "@instagram like #ctrltwit" to a tweet with an instagram photo. Or, you can RSVP to a meetup simply by replying "@meetup rsvp yes #ctrltwit" to a tweet with a meetup link. Or you can tweet "@foursquare where to eat? #ctrltwit" and fsq will reply with the best restaurant recommendation based on your location. There are more examples on the website and of course I'd…

That explains why they emailed me and forced me to change my password last year. Being Awesome, Twitter doesn't have any way to simply toss out all your followers and start from scratch. And none of the spammy apps claiming to do so actually will (even seemingly after charging you money to try). So instead, I just pulled open the Dev console and did this:…

I'm currently traveling the world and I was tired of having to download 2MB+ of data to open any link on Twitter and wait 10+ seconds for it to load. Data is expensive abroad and I don't have LTE everywhere. So I built a Twitter bot @NativeArticle that automatically tweets screenshots of the mobile version of a url. Images load much faster on Twitter than opening the original page. And it only takes a fraction of the data needed (about 65-80KB per screenshot). The only issue is that you can't select text because those are images. Source is available on…
