Twitter allows anyone to describe their life in unprecedented detail. Many accounts provide an ongoing commentary of an individual’s interests, activities and opinions. So it’s not hard to imagine that it’s possible to reconstruct a person’s life history by analysing their Twitter stream. But doing this automatically is trickier than it sounds. That’s because most Twitter streams contain news of important events mixed up with entirely trivial details about events of little or no significance.

If Hemingway wrote JavaScript. The following article was written by my good friend and colleague, [Angus Croll](//twitter.com/angustweets).
Angus works on the web core team at twitter, talks at conferences around the world, and runs an amazing [blog](//javascriptweblog.wordpress.com) on javascript. Beyond this, he’s also a huge book nerd, so I thought it would be fun to get him to write about code from that perspective. Check it out! And let us know what you think on [twitter](//twitter.com/angustweets)! The New Book “If Hemingway wrote JavaScript” is out in September 2014. Pre-order your copy here! I loved literature long before I ever wrote a line of code. What is it about JavaScript that attracts so many literature devotees?
