Twitcognito
“If I was a coder …” Well I’m not. I squatted on the twitter account @twitcognito with the idea to someday make a anonymous tweet thing run via DMs.
Well, thanks to my invite into the new site ifttt.com, I don’t need to code anything. ifttt allows me to set up a task that automates some sort of internet thing. In this case, I just send out the content of a DM as a tweet. That was all DMs sent to @twitcognito get aggregated together and somewhat anonymized. Access is controlled by whom I allow @twitcognito to follow. It will be a bit of an exclusive club. Want to be included? Send @twitcognito a mention and say Hi!
Limitations:
- ifttt refreshes every 15 minutes.
- Sensitive or illegal tweets still have a digital trail.
- ifttt, probably has a limit
- It requires a human to allow people in
