This extension allows to select a random tweet from a sample search.
Twitter Roulette Extension
Do a lottery and pick a random tweet based on your search criteria, useful for IT events and promotions. This extension requires a Twitter API key. Developed in 48h, battle-tested at Codemotion Spain.
The Twitter API does not serve proper CORS headers, so in order to do this without a server, it had to be packaged as a Chrome Extension.
This project is open source, and the source code is available at https://github.com/icoloma/twitter-roulette
