Quick Prototype: Realtime slides using Twitter (owdskoo.com)

Inspiration: http://lessigerator.com/

The basic concept is that a presenter could create short text slides with just their phone, while they are giving a presentation.

Three hours later:The code is strictly proof of concept, essentially my first use of Jquery, and mostly stolen from online tutorials.

Currently it polls the twitter API every 10 seconds. It will go through the allocated 150 queries/hr for anonymous in about 25 minutes. If it were able to authenticate with the API, that could be stretched to continuous use.

I don't know if it's possible to text while giving a dynamic presentation without looking like a douche.

It could also be useful for a 'notetaker' putting up a general topic as a group discussion moves from point to point.
