# Random Spreadsheet Tweet Bot

- `./index.js` will pull a random cell value from a public Google Spreadsheet with `tabletop` and tweet it with `twit`

- `./now.js` exposes a `/tweet` route via express to do the same

This is running right now randomly tweeting my band's lyrics once a day: https://mobile.twitter.com/Forester_TN
