Politweets
Description
Built over a weekend with the Character140 collective โ€” a group of DC-area developers and designers. Politweets scraped Twitter's public timeline for presidential candidate mentions and displayed them in real time, homepage styled like a digital newspaper. Went live just before the New Hampshire primaries. Covered by HuffPost, Mashable, ZDNet, and ReadWriteWeb. Six to nine months later, Twitter shipped their own version at election.twitter.com.
