Tony Hawk Ride Official Site

Start Date: June, 2009
URL: http://www.thride.com/
Technology: php, MySQL, Prototype/Scriptaculous, Twitter API, cron

Purpose:
Provide a brochure site to promote the latest game in the Tony Hawk franchise.

Challenges:
This was the project that precipitated all the Twitter research I published.

The Twitter program works by searching Twitter for keywords or by user and includes a heavy duty filtering module for keeping undesirable users and keywords from showing up.

This was also my first attempt at doing an AJAX form with HTML_QuickForm, Smarty and Prototype/Scriptaculous.
