UPDATE: FreeBird is no longer. But Scroll will be the phoenix from FreeBird's ashes and solve this problem.

freebird

FreeBird hedges your dependency on Twitter.

  1. Let's you easily export your Tweets to your own "Freebird" static html page on a domain you control.

  2. Contains a decentralized immutable registry linking Twitter usernames to Freebird pages across the web, so that if someone you follow is blocked by Twitter, you can still find their Freebird page.

Project Status

Concept.

Origin

I went to Twitter today and found out I've been temporarily banned. Why? It's actually pretty hilarious. Someone asked for movie recommendations and I replied "Die Hard". I was serious. It's a great movie. I guess their machinery got confused, however. [0]

This was a wakeup call to me that I should hedge my exposure to Twitter. Enter Freebird.

Freebird provides some backup decentralization for Twitter.
