Comment on Show HN: My first web app

Comments

Interesting!

Haven't been using anything like hunch till now, so asking here. How does it work? Is is just parsing my tweets and recommending stuffs based on keywords? Where does the recommendation data come from?

EDIT: One more thing. It's pretty quick compared to some other services which try to read the tweets and do something with that. Is it really fetching and processing all the tweets before recommending?

EDIT: Ok, the above question was kinda dumb. Since it uses hunch, so it does not need to get the tweets any way. But, would be interesting to know how hunch does that, because considering that twecommend sends the request to hunch and hunch responds after doing all the processing, it is still quick.
