17-Year-Old Builds App to Prevent TV Spoilers on Twitter
Finally you will no longer be afraid to open your twitter page or app whenever you’re watching your favorite TV Show. There is now an application to prevent seeing spoilers of your favorite shows on your twitter feed.
Setting out to fix that very issue, 17-year-old Jen Lamere recently took home the top prize at the TVnext hack event in Boston (where she was the only female participating) for her Twivo app for Google Chrome. The concept is exactly how it sounds: Tivo for tweets.
Twivo puts a block on tweets with keywords relevant to any show during certain periods of time. This way, you never have to be afraid to check out Twitter while away from the TV.
