Tweetworks is a service and site built on top of Twitter allowing a user to create public and private groups (instead of hashtags) with threaded conversations and more.
Tweetworks is a Boston-area startup created by @MikeLangford, and it features a full-fledged web service API.
The easiest way to obtain the tweetworks
package is
using setuptools to grab it from PyPI. Assuming you have Python,
with setuptools installed, you should just be able to
run this command in your shell:
easy_install tweetworks
You can also download the current version from PyPI.
You'll need a Tweetworks account in order to use this API.
import tweetworks
api = tweetworks.API("your api key")
That's the gist of it! For more detailed information, see the documentation.
The easiest way to help out is to interact with the project on github. If you're not able to dive into the code yourself, contact me with suggestions, bugfixes, and the like.
