Comment on Twitter feed of Hacker News stories as soon as they reach 20 points

Comments

Clever but how about a real RSS feed of those so I don't have to go to an RSS feed, then twitter, then bitly, then the original link?

Especially since with the shortened URL I don't really know where I am going.

Comments will show up in the rss items (not active yet, should show up within the hour).

Yes, use Readability to parse the pages and show the full text of the article directly in the RSS feed.

The Readability parse is a good idea, but implementing that would need more time than I can spare right now. If anyone wants to do the legwork on that, please contact me and I'll be happy to put it in the feed.

Someone has done it before[0], but the feed doesn't seem to be available anymore.

You forgot the the app for the RSS feed.
