foaf is a small webapp that lets people log in with their Twitter account and
generate a friend-of-a-friend network for a given Twitter user. This can take a
while in the background, but once the data is ready they can download it as a
CSV file.

Under the hood it's a Python Flask application that uses Redis and Supervisor to
manage a set of workers that will go and fetch the data from the Twitter API.
