• Retweet Game

    The Twitter Retweet Game

    As Twitter releases its official support for retweets, we’ve decided to hack help them test out their new system by increasing the volume of retweets. Retweet Game applies retweeting into a game, with the winners receiving hundreds of new retweets and followers.

    Retweet Game exploits the user’s desires for Twitter popularity and reach with a unassuming and forgettable interface while thrusting users’ common conversations into the upper bounds of Twitter famousness. Users to gamble their time and tweets for a chance to win a retweet round. Perfect loosing your *real* Twitter friends.

    Of course, you can always increase your odds with a donation to F.A.T. :D

    Retweet Game was made by Greg Leuch using Sinatra.

    I have recently constructed the first Fatbot to do our bidding. If you say one of several keywords in the #FATLAB IRC channel the fatbot will look up some information for you.

    Fatbot currently responds to:
    * !meme — auto-generate an internet catchphrase from Automeme API
    * !swineflu — print latest stats from the CDC.

    Ex. 1:

    
    <jamiew> !swineflu
    <fatbot> U.S. Human Cases of H1N1 Flu Infection:
             226 cases,  1 death -- http://www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/
    <jamiew> !meme
    <fatbot> YOU HAVE NO CHANCE TO GET LAID, MAKE YOUR TIME
    
    

    fatbot was made with ruby & isaac.
