Learn how you can create your own Twitter bot using Node.js and the new Twitter API. The bot will auto retweet in response to tweets with some particular hashtags. (https://goo.gl/4whEIt)

Here are the tools we’ll be using to create the bot —

	We have a client that ships from multiple warehouses using zones to determine
	pricing. They maintain the zones in a Goole Maps document. We are creating a
	front end that clients can enter their address and we'll show them what their
	shipping options are. We will have the client export their zones as a KML
	file and we'll import it into a MySQL database and use ST_Contains to find
	the shipping zone(s) customers are in. (They can only be in one zone for any
	given warehouse but may be within range of multiple warehouses.)

	One thing to point out is there is confusion about the order of latitude and
	longitude. Mathematically, it is naturally ordered "longitude, latitude" but
