That’s right. Automeme can now be accessed from http://autome.me!

http://automeme.net and http://api.automeme.net still work as usual.

Auto-Meme Zing. A social network for memes.

sindacious:

For fun I made an Irssi script that makes use of the automeme.net API. Personally I’ve been using rupa’s automeme bash script, though I made an Irssi alternative for a friend that uses Irssi+cgywin.

Example:
[04:06:18] <~newton> I MOONWALK, THEREFORE I SUCK.
[04:06:19] <~newton> IS IT CAN BE ESKIMOS TIEM NAO PLEES?
[04:06:20] <~newton> BECOME AN HACKERS ON STEROIDS
You can grab it from http://derp.us/62.

I’ll also note this is the first Irssi/Perl script I’ve ever made.

Another API update

Sat, 21 Aug 2010 15:36:00 +0100

The new API now supports cross-site HTTP requests, meaning anyone can fetch memes using Javascript.

Some “diving in” sample code has been added to the documentation. Here it is in Safari’s console:

api.automeme.net

api.automeme.net:

The slightly new and slightly improved Auto-Meme API!

In addition to the old URLs (which still work just fine), you can now fetch memes with one of these:

The documentation has also been rewritten, hopefully for the better.

PROTIP: Auto-Meme has moved to a much more memorable location, automeme.net!

The API can still be accessed from meme.boxofjunk.ws, so you don’t need to change anything.

I’ve been meaning to do this for a long time. Now there’s a “work-safe, kinda politically correct-ish, but I still wouldn’t show your granny if I were you” option, which ignores certain words and patterns. This required splitting the vocabulary into safe-for-work and not-safe-for-work sets — a harrowing process, to say the least.

As a bonus, here’s a snippet from the updated codebase:

nsfw = {
    ...
    'bodypart': [
        'arse; ~s',
        'boob; tits',
        'butt; ~s',
        'dong; ~s',
        'penis; ~es',
        'vagina; ~s',
        'weiner; ~s',
    ],
    ...
}
