Good example:

AwareOps tweets every time a solution goes down: https://twitter.com/awareops

Is that spamming bot stuff or useful or both?

How about the kid who wrote an app that tweets everyone position of a billionaire's airplane location?

That's the point.

> but if you tweet through the API then you get a big "BOT" tag next to your username on the feed.

What if I do this through Zapier? What about Hootsuite? Who's a BOT and who isn't?



How about we just print capital letter the "BOT" on automated accounts? And then just add a optional filter for comments/likes/shares?
