Two Options

So basically today I've been going through various php connect tutorials for my website and I can't yet find any that apply to what I'm trying to do. Though each tutorial is helpful.

I have found the following website pretty good - https://github.com it basically lets you download examples of sdk's that already exist so you can look at the code.

SO the 2 options title of the blog refers to my wondering of if it'd be better to have a comment box which let's the user remain anonymous or if it'd be better to grab words from statuses which already exist. The only problem with this being if the status exists then it doesn't have that anonymous factor. What this means is to start up the website I'd need to find another technique of generating statuses that already exist.

What I'm going to propose is that the websites newsfeed would look a bit like the following

Kaf Eckford says: I hate my phone getting stolen in a nightclub
Anonymous says: gutted I've lost all my texts from last night!
Bobby brown says: I wish the petrol crisis would just effing stop! it's stupid

note the words that have been picked up from the users current news feed and the anonymous users posts blended in.

The advantage of having statuses that already exist is the website will appear always active which will encourage users to post anonymous statuses.
