giftter is a web app that uses the Twitter API to get a user's tweets and try to guess a gift they would like.

Disclaimer: They might not actually like the gift.

I'm using the wordpos node module to get any words that aren't 'useful'. Adjectives, verbs, adverbs, prepositions are deemed to be not 'useful'.

With a list of 'useful' top words, the app will try to predict a suitable gift from those words.

200 Latest tweets of a user:

/tweets/{user}

Top word usage from those tweets:

/top/{user}

Suggested gift: (unimplemented)

/gift/{user}

In terminal:
