I wanted to see if I could make a book from my 36,000 tweets. So I downloaded my twitter archive and asked Claude to turn it into a feature-rich library Features include: • AI search • "Dark academia" color scheme • Filters & sorting for date, engagement #s, length, etc • A Tinder-style swipe view for curation (like/superlike/pass) The most useful feature has been Claude's assigning of tags based on topic & type. This lets me see that, for instance, I have 272 tweets on aesthetics, so perhaps there's a book to be made on this topic. Eventually, I realized that – since I was using the app to do curation – I could also use it to recirculate my best material across Substack, Bluesky, and other platforms. So I asked Claude to build a queue for scheduling longform content on these platforms and another for scheduling shorter tweets. These last two features aren't fully finished yet. But if you want to build your own, you can grab my Markdown file from the Github link in my reply. Just copy-paste it to your Claude. No technical expertise needed (I certainly don't have any)
