Show HN: Global voting system using Twitter

12 pointscedel2k14 comments

3 hours ago I had the idea for a global polling/voting system, using nothing but tweets...

It went live 5 minutes ago!

...

To start or participate in a vote, just Tweet something this:

"#twote #bestdatabase #couchdb #redis"

...

Results: http://176.34.235.38:8000/

Code: https://github.com/sreuter/twote

Me on Twitter: @sreuter

Very easy to use. I like it. A stats page would be very cool; especially if you listed the Twitter comments along with the votes and stats.

Keep up the great work. I can't wait to see the next iteration.

Yay - thanks for the feedback! Stats page is already in the making... Listing Twitter comments along with the votes and stats have been put on the list :-)

Pretty neat :) It works really fast as well

Thanks a bunch! And yes, it works realtime... Can't wait to setup a polished stats page... But it's already 4AM right now over here ;-)
