If you are like me you will like to skim thought all your friends &#8220;tweets&#8221; on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/\">twitter.com<\/a> even thought you don&#8217;t read them all properly. I was doing this whenever I tweeted myself so when I posted something I also read all the way back to my prior tweet. The problem is when I am out and about I will tweet when I do not have time to check other updates, or have nothing to say after reading the some tweets.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, I can just keep reading backwards until I see something I remember, but I decided there was a better and more over engineered option here. I have set up two Twitter bots that tweet the time on the hour, and at midnight. These can be followed along with other friends and show a distinctive icon. Now all I have to do is remember is the time you last checked your feed.<\/p>\n<p>The bots are called <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/hourtick\">hourtick<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/daytick\">daytick<\/a>. Please feel free to follow them. They are work in progress so <a href=\"http:\/\/www.agm.me.uk\/contact\">all feedback welcome<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, I had another daft idea, built it, and decided to share it.
