That is a fantastic idea!

On my current list of consideration I have the idea of allowing a user to "watch" someones Twitter feed and provide the same functionality as their favorite. This would work great as well.

Appreciate the feedback.


https://twitter.com/redditforhire might be a great place to start.


Noticed you offer an API, I might throw something together. Will send you a link if I get a chance to do it.


From the pricing page, you only get API access with a paid account.


Ah, shame.


Thanks for the tip.


Creator of Favatron here. Any feedback and suggestions are very welcome.


Err... "fava" is a regional (but well-known) term for "penis" in italian. I bet you'll get some unexpected traffic and links from Italy.


What a coincidence. I just released Tweetd, somewhat similar! :)

Your service looks very cool. I love the approach you took more on tweets you make and then building a blog from them.

I see a lot of synergy with what we are both doing and perhaps we can chat more on how to work together.

I actually already use IFTTT for this exact thing. Anything I favorite that has a link gets put into Pocket. Is that essentially what this is doing?


Is this using ScriptCS?


No, it's using Roslyn directly.


Smart, every time I see one of these I worry that someone malicious will attempt to delete the server's Windows folder.


Roslyn doesn't prevent you from doing that though. You still need to validate, filter and run your code in a sandbox.


A guide of this sort on your site would be amazing and help a lot more people.


Very applicable to a large portion of people who comment here :)


That is hilarious!

He is telling the whole world what he thinks of them.


This is great. Any chance the source code can be made available on GitHub?


It's based off of this open source project from Ryan Bates: https://github.com/ryanb/ruby-warrior


Battle your fellow coders! Coder Battle is the result 12 hours of work, beer, and socializing during a local hackathon. It is a fun and casual way to measure yourself up against your friends and colleagues on coderbits.


Sadly there has been a large uproar over this commercial by people with certain view points which has caused a controversy.

I still cannot fathom why this is or has to be. It is very sad.
