On a somewhat related note, this is pretty serendipitous. I’ve just implemented a similar feature as a content-timing service called WhenGuard (http://whenguard.com). Website visitors can create special timed links, known as jitlinks, around RSS feeds or any Internet content that has a URL. These jitlinks will automatically publish the content they mask at a given time (and can optionally, unpublish it too).

If you set up a jitlink around a Twitter RSS feed with both a publish time and an unpublish time and then stick it in an infinitely caching reader like Google Reader, you’ve effectively created a time slice for feed content–the equivalent of Tivo for RSS.

The service is in its early stages, so I’d appreciate any feedback I could get through the site’s feedback link: http://whenguard.com/feedback

Filter now works to only take the entries between “start” and “stop” so at the end of the day just “stop” and Tweet like normal. Next day, “start” again and you are off and rolling.

10 folks as of 5 mins ago are Twittering for the OOW event keyword so with already 150+ entries it’s gonna be an interesting test run I think.
