Fortune Tweet

I was really missing those sweet little fortunes you used to get when logging in to an old school linux terminal way back in the 90’s. So, I went ahead and downloaded the latest fortune app via YUM on a CentOS box I have, and then wrote a little PHP script that posts fortunes to the Twitter API on the hour, every hour.

You can follow the fortunes here:

All in only 18 lines of code. Enjoy!
