Show HN: Tweetspiration – let Twitter brainstorm ideas for you
- deleted 14y ago[deleted]
- efferifick 14y agoSimilar, a subreddit called "somebody make this" http://www.reddit.com/r/SomebodyMakeThis http://www.reddit.com/r/SomebodyMakeThis
- _dark_matter_ 14y agoVery cool idea. Problem: When I choose a filter, and then click "show me more", it deletes the filter. Thus, I can only get one page of results when I use a filter.
- jellyksong 14y agoAh nice catch! Should be fixed now :)
- lalos 14y agoJust remember the wise words of Henry Ford, "If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses". Nice website and idea!
- petethepig 14y agoCheck the timestamps, they are in UTC, you better change them according to user's time zone
- jellyksong 14y agoShould be fixed!
- edwardy20 14y agoYou should search for 'somebody should' in addition to 'someone should'.
- hammock 14y agoAdd to your list: ought to, needs to, I wish someone would, etc...quickly gets out of hand.
- Sunlis 14y agoReminds me of "Ortiel's Game Idea Generator": http://orteil.dashnet.org/gamegen http://orteil.dashnet.org/gamegen
- shurcooL 14y agoThis is pretty neat, I like it. On this topic, is there an app or site where I can just view inspirational pictures from sources like cgsociety.org CG Choice Gallery, and perhaps others (500px, Deviantart). A place where seeing the next photo is just a swipe or 'j' press away. Mostly I'd like cgsociety because they have a very clumsy way to view photos one after another (you have to open each one in a new tab, etc.).
- fchollet 14y agoI'm building this actually (been at it for a couple years :-/). But you know what, deviantArt got a lot better at browsing pictures a few months ago, with their 'more like this' feature. You should check it out.
- nblaisdell 14y ago"Someone should start a Netflixesqu mail service but for pancakes instead of DVDs." Gold.
- phildeschaine 14y agoHey, just wanted to let you know you're breaking the twitter display requirements (https://dev.twitter.com/terms/display-requirements https://dev.twitter.com/terms/display-requirements) by not swapping out the t.co links with their real addresses. You gotta use those tweet_entities the API gives you. >"Links in Tweet text must be displayed using the display_url field in the URL entities API response, and link to the original t.co url field"
- jellyksong 14y agoThanks for telling me, I'll change that as soon as I can. And I seem to violate the "Actions" and "Branding" requirements as well...
- rattray 14y agoFantastic work! Was thinking about building something similar earlier today, actually. I do find the top banner quite annoying though: the fixed positioning doesn't add any value, and it's quite large. It looks pretty, just give it absolute positioning.
- snomad 14y agoNice idea. In the display, it shows "undefined NaN, NaN:aN PM". Probably a JS bug of some sort.
- justin_ 14y agoSame. Happens in Firefox but not Chrome.
- kvprashant 14y agoSomeone should make sure that troll tweets are removed :D
- raulonkar 14y agohow can i use for marketing purpose?
- kwellman 14y agoI did something very similar to this a while back[1]. I also wrote a blog post about it with code here http://blog.interstellr.com/post/22534653144/mining-twitter-for-useful-information http://blog.interstellr.com/post/22534653144/mining-twitter-...

- matthuggins 14y agoThanks for sharing the technical details!
- ceekays 14y agoThere is already a similar app called http://theinternetwishlist.com/ http://theinternetwishlist.com/ by some female developer, Amrit Richmond.
- sinak 14y ago"some female developer"?
- SuperChihuahua 14y agoSomeone should store them in a database and do some data mining on them
- klrr 14y agoThank you!
- JackWebbHeller 14y ago"Someone should make an app that tells me how much pizza i am" Well, I know what I'm doing for my weekend project!
- pekk 14y agoWelcome to youarenotpizza.com
- mediagearbox 14y agoThis is really neat! Great job!
- mofle 14y agoThere's a lot of duplicate tweets and retweets of the original. Filter out the duplicates.
- jevyjevjevs 14y ago.. and indicate there are multiple people interested.
- RKoutnik 14y agoA lot of fun, even if most the ideas are nonsense or impossible. If you were to build this out further, I'd add more phrases like "There has to be a better way" (i.e. https://twitter.com/rdegges/status/325885686404227072 https://twitter.com/rdegges/status/325885686404227072 )
- program 14y agoOn the $(document).ready call change: var d = new Date(element.name); to var d = Date.parse(element.name); This will solve the "undefined NaN, NaN:aN PM" issue.
- jellyksong 14y agoChanged, thanks!
- SurfScore 14y agoI like this because its creative, but was relatively easy to implement. It didn't need a million hours of coding, just a text search for keywords (I'm oversimplifying a bit obviously). It let your brain do the heavy lifting to save on programming time. Elegant.
- helloamar 14y agoGreat job
- xcubic 13y agoGreat idea. It would be nice to vote on some of the ideas and then filter the most voted...
- xcubic 13y agoMaybe a way to filter by popularity too?
