It would be cool if ibtsocs.com checked for posts to Twitter with the #ibtsocs hash tag, and duplicated them locally. They should live in a TwitterPost model that inherits from the Post model so we can store additional metadata like where we got the post from.

Currently, it's possible to record votes simply by making GET requests.

This was previously resulting in search engine crawlers registering a bunch of votes in the process of crawling the website.

I've cleaned up the database for now, and used robots.txt to try and prevent search engines from doing this (see 70742cb), but we still should really be using POST requests to record votes.
