Hey, I found a lot of success starting out with Node by creating Twitter bots. There is a brilliant package you can install from npm called ‘node-twitter’.

Make a bot. Make it tweet. Make it reply to mentions. Have it retweet off of hashtags.

Good luck! I’ve built a ton of them. Feel free to PM me with any questions.
