Find Friends for the Siblings



As an aid to naturalise the DGR Siblings, they need people to follow. This should lead to some work on processing tweets from who the Sibling follows and then tweeting something appropiate. May this be some generative from followed tweets or else is yet to be decided.

TweetGeek is being trialled with DGR Model 3 02 as a following tool for the Sibling. It uses OAuth, which is handy.

It adds 200 people based upon keywords.

For this trial I've used the base keywords from the DGR M3V2 .yaml file.

character_keywords: [crazy, brave, champion, dreamer, bmx]

From the initial collection of friending of 200 accounts, around 5% started following DGRv3m2 - unsurprisingly, they we're mostly spam or social media 'gurus'.

It would be good to find a similar befriending application based upon the RTing that the Sibling is doing. Ergo, make content from spam. Spam Radio is a fine example of this.

But back to the account in hand.

Following: 194
Tweets: 20
Followers: 10

Seems quite nicely rounded.
