Greenwich Tweets

I’m slowly getting the ball rolling with an idea I’ve had for a while called Greenwich Tweets. The idea behind this is to aggregrate information about Greenwich (London) from a number of Web resources, principally Twitter.

So far I haven’t done much more than register a Twitter account (@greenwichtweets) and domain name (greenwichtweets.co.uk) and browse some of the API documentation. Updates on progress will be available on the Greenwich Tweets site (which at the moment is just redirecting to a page on this site!). I’m hoping to start work in earnest around July.

At the moment I’m looking at Python and Zope (possibly Plone) to manage the back-end stuff, although I’m hoping to keep it all reasonably lightweight.
