The past few night Thomas Stiegler and I have been working on a Coldfusion, jQuery powered twitter app called TweetTrail.
The idea is that you can search for a term and see who are the top 20 tweeters mentioning that term. Rather then claiming you tweet the most about #jQuery for example now you can prove it. http://www.tweettrail.com/search/jquery
The logic went through several re-writes before an optimized method of caching and performance were archived. The Ajax went through several iterations but is quite nice ( click and avatar ).
Thanks to all who helped in the private Aplha test this week we tried to sort out as many issues as possible. Were still not totally ie6 or 7 friendly ( ie8 works well though ) but we are happy with the Beta release.
We also have a bot TweetTrail which re-announces your search and the results. Each term will be announce only once per month.
We have several ideas and additions in the works. Comments/Suggestions welcome.
Special thanks to Coldfusion and CFML in general for giving us the tools pre-packaged to accomplish this in such a short time.
