Rhymer's Block — In-line rhyming dictionary for hip hop & poetry lyrics

@ErikTberg here's an idea: Step 1: Register @RappinYoTweets on Twitter Step 2: Search Twitter for specific keywords/phrases that match your database of rhymes Step 3: When a match is found, reply with a rhyme Step 4: ??? Step 5: Profit

@ayedea, let's chat about this and i'll tell you my system. ayedea is also conveniently close to one of my favorite rapper of all time, eyedea

So @MattHartman really deserves the credit. I'll update attribution in the db. P.S. look forward to a collection of rap hunts next week.

for the last few years i've been working on a custom rhyming dictionary, one that infuses 2-7 syllable rhymes or combo rhymes that you'd never find in a rhyming dictionary. e.g. beatbox/steve jobs, super duper/oompa loompa. don't know what i'm going to do with it yet but it's taught me how to rhyme well.

All you need is the first rapper to write a classic and contribute it to the use of Rhymer's Block lol

Looking forward to seeing the raps you guys come up with! @ErikTberg, the combo rhymes is also something I've wanted to tackle. Curious to how you approached it. My plan was to use WordNet to find associations and create the rhymes dynamically. http://wordnet.princeton.edu

Haha @jm3 - I took it old school with the skeuomorphic design. Making designers cringe for days. @eriktorenberg - eyedea is awesome, I am obviously inspired. I'll drop you a line, interested in hearing about what you've built.

Unleash your inner Ben Horowitz. HT to Matt Hartman from Betaworks who clued me into this

@jm3 - surprisingly, I find this delightful :)
