As far as side projects go:

I was a 100%-RSS-news guy a few years ago, but found myself more and more looking at twitter for a certain kind of news content (mostly rants about how bad agile has become). But I kind of hated needing to use two apps to get my daily content fix. Strangely Twitter didnt provide an RSS feed for the raw timeline feed. So I build myself an Twitter2RSS thingie.

Go / Postgress / Heroku For RSS generation: https://github.com/gorilla/feeds (looks stale now)

Was a great learning experience as I was teaching myself Go back then. Dont use it much these days anymore, but its still working, which I find incredible, since I basically havent touched the thing for over 6 years!

Any way to get Twissr to subscribe to a users twitter list?
