Its an assistant - not a fully automated bot.

It helps you find posts, like a newspaper does, but it is up to you to actually select and post it.

I have the same fear as you and we make SURE that the app is not about spamming social media.

nope.

If you want to see the code, its all one the client side for now - do have a look :-)

when this grows, it will come from a db and I will have to move it server side

Can you tell me your twitter account and I will look into the bug.

< I couldn't search the same keywords again either as everything I removed was removed permanently> This is intentional but now I have my doubts about its usefulness.

Will definitely work on the bug. thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it

Good effort.

Finally I can see and sort by RT rating which I trust way more than imdb.

You could also somehow link it to "popcorn time" then it will complete the loop.

Also a separate section for "available on netflix" will make this indispensable.

You could even add a weekly newsletter that shows... 1. new movies on netflix. 2. must watch classics etc base on my taste 4. new episodes of [walking dead] available

and shoot it out on a friday :-)

The UK Govt API http://data.gov.uk/ is a good place to start and study.

Here are the 7 design principles that guided them in the design process

1. Start with needs* 2 Do less 3 Design with data 4 Do the hard work to make it simple 5 Iterate. Then iterate again. 6 Build for inclusion 7 Understand context 8 Build digital services, not websites 9 Be consistent, not uniform 10 Make things open: it makes things better

Here is more about that https://www.gov.uk/design-principles#first

Interesting. There was a Paul graham video some time back where he did office hours with someone who was pitching the exact same idea. I cant seem to find it. Have you seen it? Are you the same person? He didnt seem to buy into it too much in the video
