    Opening the garage door:

    I built this over 2 days, Friday night and Saturday. Thanks to the new search endpoint in the v2 Twitter API, I was able to go from concept to launch really quickly. I definitely wouldn't have been able to build so quickly on pre-v2 APIs (and the user experience would've been wayy more janky).

    Lots of positive feedback so far on Twitter, thanks to the #RoamCult: https://twitter.com/benzguo/status/1294832715049517058

    I’m thinking about monetizing with a “top up credits” / pay-as-you-go pricing model. Would love advice from the HN crowd :)
