Mahemoff’s Software As She’s Developed [Mini Edition]

Michael Mahemoff  //  Web designer/developer. Rails/Ajax/etc

This is my random anything-goes blog - I am treating it as an easy way to generate mini web pages, rather than a continuous flow of consciousness on any particular topic. It gives me an outlet for things I can't say on Twitter in 140 characters, but are too unstructured, short, incomplete, and grammatically trainwrecked to post on my main blog at http://softwareas.com.

twitter reactions is wonderful, here's what it needs

Twitter Reactions (http://lifehacker.com/5462474/twitter-reactions-shows-what-the-twitterverse-is-saying-about-that-web-page) is a very nice tool for tracking what the twittersphere is saying about a web page. Just like embedded Scrumptious comments or Google's sidewikis, it augments the page with comments, but in this case, those comments are tweets.

(One day, Scrumptious might do the same thing...it's all just tiddlers and we'll be able to have tiddlers pushed from inbound email, twitter, text messages, and elsewhere.)

Anyway, @RWW asks what features we want?

My inclination is "nothing; KISS". But one thing I would really want is some kind of filter to avoid showing tweets that are just in the format "http://the/link the title" (with some kind of fuzzy matching). Not that there's anything wrong with tweets like that, but it's just not the kind of thing I need to see when I'm looking for reactions.
