Inspiration

I just spend too much time on Twitter.

What it does

Retweets tweets containing "blaze it" exactly at 4:20 AM.

How I built it

It's a simple javascript file that does all the work (node). It reads the configuration that consists on an array of time + pattern to search + array of possible texts to tweet. When the time of each one arrives, it first tweets a random of the tweet texts, then streams all tweets containing the search pattern, and retweets them.

Challenges I ran into

Lack of sleep.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

It works.

What I learned

How Twiter api works, and some node.js which I never used before.

What's next for Blaze It Bot

A database to store the first people to tweet every day each pattern, so that I can make a ranking (POLE).
