Building a rough queue system with node/redis
A json message is received queue --> the queue name msg --> message body
To implement: transientq --> whether this is transient or not
If transientq is true, then use Redis pub/sub as it has no recovery if a listening client fails unlike MQs. Otherwise it will push into a list (to be implemented).
The client listens to a defined queue at the other end. The publihser pushes out via JSON and it is up to the listener to deal with the messages.
feeddaemon.js is a script which runs every 5 seconds and calls the main Twitter timeline. It stores the user name and message in a Redis pub/sub channel.
The next todo is to call a list of Twitter ids to allow the script to call a defined set or play with search options e.g.: search for a particular hashtag
