It good to have some experience with ruby & git

Install used gems:

• Twitter(for the twitter API)
• Sinatra (webframework) & Haml
• Pony (sending mails)
• Chimps (getting the "strength of ties")
• Readability (getting the "raw" text) or pismo (getting the right "div" on the website)
• Delayed_jobs (creates the newspaper in the background)

Set up your config files

• config.yaml
• database.yaml
• environment.rb

Migrate your database

• require 'environment.rb'
• ActiveRecord::Migrator.migrate("db") – performs the migration

Set up your data directory

• mkdir /data

Ready to go

• use ./delayed_job run (to see what is happening in the background)
