simple set of scripts for slurping twitter gardenhose and uploading to s3 daily restarts curl from gardenhose hourly to ensure dropped connections are reestablished from time to time requires a s3 bucket to be created beforehand (should really roll into the script) start a micro instance and ssh on and run... $ yum install git $ git clone git://github.com/matpalm/gardenhose-microslurp.git $ cp gardenhose-microslurp/* . $ ./bootstrap.sh bootstrap sets some env vars (in ~/env_vars) for twitter uid, s3 creds and sets up some cron jobs
