(only made in QC3! I'm working on an old laptop and havent jumped to snow leopard yet!)
Not earth shattering, but someone paying the bills asked me 5 minutes before a video event I was helping at "so..like..can you display live twitter updates with the specified hash tags of this event?" and i of course said 'what?? no..get the hell away from me'
now..2 days later i decided to actually look and slopped something together in like 20 minutes..ah well
really nothing fancy..uses the standard rss feed patch in qc and allows you to plug it into vdmx with a search term text field..and it should automatically start mining for whatever you search for
you could throw this on at a show you're playing at and just enter the hashtag of the event and people's tweets would start showing up wherever you place the thing
anyone have any bug fixes for it? i havent let it run for too long so im not sure if its continuously updating itself when i leave it
