- The app listens to Twitter Stream , and Hubot (IRC).
- In the browser the twitter stream gets parsed using http://embed.ly to show images, etc.
- On Server (node.js) Hubot listens for certain messages on IRC and then sends a message to browser via Sockets.io
- Each message type ("showimage", "addevent", etc) has a handler (javascript) on the browser.
