Reminds me of Andi Albrecht's mercurial hook [0] which posts a photo from your webcam to Twitter whenever a merge fails.

:) just tried it, its pretty cool, but has a lot of false negatives. Opening my mouth was enough to trigger a smile and I can't even make a real smile. It was cool that it have a false trigger when I frowned.


So :D => :) ?


I don't think it is able to differentiate type of smileys. Only :). No :o, :p or :D

But damn cool app :)


Hilarious. Doesn't seem that useful as evidenced by him not being able to not smile. He should make an LOL version of this though!


There are all sorts of uses! For example, you could make a site called smilelinks that is automatically generated based off the webpages that make you smile. My guess is cuteoverload would dominate the list.


:)


Nice demo to learn openFrameworks from. Cool app too.


Upvoted for happiness inducing factor! yay =)


Is that akin to saying "It made me smile."?


yes.
