#cancheck is a small plugin for the Cinch IRC bot framework intended to monitor a channel for the #cancheck hashtag, grab an included jpg/png url from the message, then compress, store, and make public that image.
Currently being used to capture images of beers being consumed by channel members. A low-fi Untappd, essentially.
While the need for this is probably small beyond my personal use, it could easily be adapted and expanded into a more general purpose #hashtag and image capturing system.
