Automating Better Than News

From Gnomon Chronicles
Jump to navigation Jump to search

I try to post #BetterThanNews on Twitter daily.

Currently this requires:

• Making a screenshot from the website • Cropping the screenshot • Copying and pasting text from the website into a tweet

I could, and may, automate the process: write scripts to do all of the above.

Variety

In any given #BetterThanNews template, I like to present a miscellaneous diversity of items, with an emphasis on contrast between items, generally avoiding thematic clusters.

A few pages might have, say, two Star Wars items. But these are exceptional, and due for renovation.
