GREAT SUCCESS! Witness Price Feed Automation
(@KLYE rocking the "borat" speedo AKA the Sling Swimsuit)
+1 Robot Training! Price Feed Automagically Updates!
Every 5 minutes of the price changes my witness will update my price feed automatically taking data from sources poloniex.com and bittrex.com. This should free up more time on my end and help curb my constant obsessing of checking the charts and checking prices to update my feed manually.
The script is written in python which is admittedly not a programming language I'm particularly familiar with but even I was to get it set up and running. It took me all of 20 minutes to configure and get running and an hour to verify it was in fact working.
Urging Other Backup Witnesses to Automate
As stated above it took very little tiem to get the script running and tested. Anyone serious about running a witness node should surely look into automating their price feed.
Installation Instructions

oh man... there's definitely a green speedo pic in your future hahaha
and I'm pretty sure it will probably eclipse the earnings of your other posts.
Bahahaha. I think that might happen...!
Warn us first, ok?
I may or may not warn of the sexy speedo photoshoot..
If I really wanted to be a troll I'd title it something innocent like...
"Witness Update" lol
Or "My day at the puppy shelter"
ROFL. Now that's just sick! Hilarious! :D
...or picking a mushroom in a hay field.
Please title it in someway like this hahaha
Great idea, but then you would need 2 posts, one to draw in people like witness update, and one like move update and possibly a 3rd like Speedo photo shot! There 3 posts 2 that it can be in with out warning lol
@klye in a green Borat speedo... omg...
Hawt

It's great man!
I adjusted the update time to 5 minutes to keep a closer value on my feed but other than that the script is awesome man. Thank you for creating this. :)
Tempting ....

I might just get one anyways to terrorize STEEM with.. It can be my official witness campaign suit.
