- diego 19y agoLet's do it. I just registered the twitshadow domain and I'm willing to dedicate some of my company's resources to the project. I'm thinking about what would be the best language to do it in. My first choice would be Python.
- m0nty 19y ago"I'm thinking about what would be the best language to do it in." "When you gotta shoot, shoot. Don't talk." Or, to put it another way: the best way to start is to cut some code, don't get bogged down in discussion.
- diego 19y agoGood point. Off to the whiteboard I go, see you in a while :) edit: I'm aiming to put something up on the wiki here by the end of today, we can go from there: http://code.google.com/p/twitshadow/ http://code.google.com/p/twitshadow/
- yan 19y agoIt's way too early for choice of language. But if I had to chime in, I'd say Erlang would be a fine choice, especially that we have ejabberd to build from. Anyway, I'm up for joining.
