Channel:bitfolk/Twitfolk

From Blitzed

Twitfolk is a bot which gates Twitter statuses into IRC.

It was born after a brief debate on the subject. It is still experimental.

If you have a Twitter account and would like your tweets gated into IRC then let grifferz know.

See also bitfolk/planet.

[edit] Now the dust has settled...

Twitfolk has been in #BitFolk for some time now. How do people think it is going? Are there any changes you wish to see made? Should the thing be scrapped totally?

[edit] How to ignore someone

If you don't appreciate someone's Twitter output but you don't want to entirely ignore the bot, you could use a regular expression ignore.

[edit] irssi

The exact syntax may depend on the POSIX regex library that your irssi uses. The below seems to work on Debian Lenny.

/ignore -regexp -pattern \[theirnick/ Twitfolk!*twitfolk@*.bitfolk.com notices
