Utter: Twitter Trivia Game

I’ve always been a fan of game nights. I can remember vividly beating my parents at Scrabble for the first time or playing Heads Up with college friends. Games are a great way to bond, and I saw an opportunity to make game nights more meaningful if we added our personal stories to it by using Twitter. If you think about social medias, Instagram is the highlight reel, but Twitter is the diary and every tweet has a story. I learned I could pull tweets with Twitter’s APIs and thought it would be fun to guess which of my friends tweeted it. So far the response has been very positive. Almost 500 games have been played nationwide and I’ve hosted over a dozen games which always had a lot of laughs, great stories, and more connecting in this virtual new world.
