Thought for the Dazed

I've had to give up that Distance Learning course as I was having trouble seeing the teacher.

Hull Computer Science Twitter Feed

DateMonday, September 22, 2008 at 08:39AM

We now have an experimental Twitter feed for the department at Hull. This will be used for sending out messages as a supplement to the RSS news feed that we run internally. You can find it here:

Since Twitter has an API I was thinking of writing a program that reads an RSS feed and tweets any item under 150 characters in length to twitter. This would make it a completely automatic extension to our message system. Does anyone know if this has been done already? Does anyone fancy doing it?

Oh, and you can follow me on Twitter at:

I'm not a very good twitterer (or is it twit?) to be honest, I have enough problems thinking of something to say in daily blog posts, but if you want to follow me you are more than welcome.
