Very simple app, more of an excuse to play with a particular tech stack than anything (Heroku, Redis, MongoMapper, Sinatra and running multiple threads on Heroku)

There is a demo video on the site which does a good job of explaining the app. Please feel free to leave comments.

It's a complete code spike, so YMMV on the stability. If there is enough interest I'll put some time into making it better.

I still don't get it....why would I want to do this?

It would be better if I had a usecase. It's basically a callback app. As long as you have a HTTP endpoint that responds to GET you can hit that endpoint at any time over Twitter.

Or I could just kick off the HTTP endpoint with a browser favorite (even on mobile)

I wonder if there is anything malicious I can do with this... :-)
