Connect with people using Foursquare and Twitter
We use your Foursquare checkins to introduce you in real-time with people you have common interests using your Twitter graph.
I'd love to hear the concepts behind this, I'm guessing you first do a radial search from current location, yield list twitter handles, fetch last n dozen tweets, extract links, cluster, intersect, introduce.<p>I don't have a 4[] account to try it but im curious what you used. Obviously in 8 hours there's only limited technology that can be done, but if you're using python or another language with a rich set of libraries it's possible to do quite a lot during that time. Obviously 8 hours means 6 when you factor in HN time :)
Well done, but it looks awfully similar to DontEat.at. ;)<p>I was also at the hackathon. A couple of friends and I hacked together a lists feature: <a href="http://foursquare.heroku.com" rel="nofollow">http://foursquare.heroku.com</a>.
Very cool idea. Will it only work with people participating in the app, or anyone that has a twitter attached to their Foursquare account?<p>(As long as I participate in the app, of course.)
