> ## Twitter Personalities (#208)
>
> Merhaba Rubyists,
>
> This week's quiz is to create a program that will generate messages
> 140 characters in length. There primary use will be to create a
> Twitter "personality". At the end of the quiz period these
> "personalities" will be unleashed on the internet and we'll see how
> they do in the wild.
>
> The programs will consist of two parts: a component for interacting
> with Twitter, and a top secret "personality" module.
>
> For the Twitter interface component there will be no no-spoiler
> period. Please feel encouraged to discuss different libraries or
> methods on the mailing list. Let's all work together to find the best
> interface.
>
> The "personality" component can take any inputs and will produce a 140
> character message when called. The "personality" may remember state.
> The no-spoiler period applies for the "personality" component; please
> save them until everyone has had a chance to consider their own
> implementations.
>
> Have Fun!

Here's the twitter "personality" I made: http://twitter.com/iloveweather

It posts about the weather conditions of a random US city.  The phrase
list needs some expanding, and there's a little code to clean up
before I post it.  It was pretty fun, and I'm really enjoying seeing
tweets like "Step outside, Bliss. It's nice." and "It's days like this
that make people happy to be in Beverly."

It doesn't do replies (yet).

More to come,
Chris
