TwitterOnAccess

TwitterOnAccess is a quick little script designed to send a tweet to a Twitter account each time a visitor visits a Web page. The idea came from a dinner conversation during which someone mentioned that it would be interesting to get a text message each time someone visited your site. I decided to implement it, using Twitter as a feed/notification service.

Relevant Links:

  • A live demo of this script can be seen here.
  • Documentation is available in the generated docs.
  • Any updates on this code will be posted on my blog.
  • You can browse the code at gitweb.

Note: this code is provided only as an example of an interesting application for Twitter. It's probably not something you actually want to implement on a real site. Additionally, since the script is basically useless, I will probably not be updating it.

Download

The script is available via git: http://git-pub.code.chrisdzombak.net/twitteronaccess.git/

Alternatively, you may download the script, Doxyfile, and docs in one package: .zip
