# Heroku_ebooks

This is a basic Python port of [@harrisj's](https://twitter.com/harrisj) [iron_ebooks](https://github.com/harrisj/iron_ebooks/) Ruby script. Using Heroku's scheduler, you can post to an _ebooks Twitter account based on the corpus of an existing Twitter at pseudorandom intervals. Currently, it is the magic behind [@adriennelaf_ebx](http://www.twitter.com/adriennelaf_ebx) and [@stevebuttry_ebx](http://www.twitter.com/stevebuttry_ebx).

As I said, this is based almost entirely on [@harrisj's](https://twitter.com/harrisj) [iron_ebooks](https://github.com/harrisj/iron_ebooks/). He created it in Ruby, and I wanted to port it to Python. All the credit goes to him.
As a result, all of the blame for clunky implementation in Python fall on me. If you see ways to improve the code, please fork it and send a pull request, or file an issue for me and I'll address it.
