I’ve built a proof of concept in some hacked together python code to automatically add movies to my netflix queue when I send twitter messages to @flixbot.
For example this tweet:
Gets Blade into my queue. Awesome.
I started building this out into a full fledged service so other people can use it as well. Of course I’m going to need a hosted site somewhere for people to sign up. I figured it might be a good time to play with my app engine account.
I got part of the way of there with app engine serving up pages, but then ran into problems with xml libraries I was using in my POC not existing in the AppEngine sandbox.
Also I’m starting to run out of enthusiasm.
So that’s where I’m at. Goodnight.
