+# Hashtag retweet bot
+
+A bot that retweets all tweets tagged by a certain tag. Ideal for conferences, meetup groups, communities, etc.
+
+## Installation
+
+    gem install balinterdi-hashtag_retweet_bot --source http://gems.github.com
+
+Create the database that will hold the tweets:
+
+    mysqladmin create my_conference
+
+Create a directory where you will run the bot from:
+
+    mkdir bot_for_my_conference
+    cd bot_for_my_conference
+    touch database.yml bot.yml
+
+Put the credentials for the twitter account in _bot.yml_:
+
+    login: my_conference_bot
+    password: secret
+
+Put the database connection attributes in _database.yml_:
+
+    adapter: mysql
+    username: root
+    host: localhost
+    password:
+    database: my_conference
+
+## Run it
+
+Now the only thing left to do is to run the bot:
+
+    hashtag_retweet_bot my_conference
+
+## Credits
+
+Original idea and script by [Mark Connell](http://github.com/mconnell) for Scotland on Rails 2009. Customization for Euruko '09 by [Jaime Iniesta](http://github.com/jaimeiniesta). Some improvements and gemification by [Balint Erdi](http://github.com/balinterdi).
