It is a simple decentralised, minimalist microblogging service for hackers

I gave myself the challenge of trying to webize it in 24 hours.  Im quite
happy with the results.

I thought I'd share what was done.

- Translate all the functionality from python to nodejs
- Add tests and automatic builds
- Create a binary using npm
- Convert the config ini files to .json

Happily it works out of the box, and you can save your tweets to a text
file.  You can also follow other people.

In order to put your microblog on the web (webize) the suggestion was to
scp to a server.  While this works well enough, I thought to PUT my file in
my solid storage via curl which worked really well.

There is already a growing list of users using the system:

You can see mine in there, saving my posts to databox.  Enjoy!
