Staying up to date with the Duke MBB news, season tickets, recruiting, etc
Hey guys, I'm Matt, I did my undergrad at Duke and graduated in 2023.
I felt like since graduating, it's been more difficult every year to keep up to date with what's going on with the program like recruiting news, Scheyer press releases, tickets and regular season games.
Maybe things got busier for me, social media has gotten a lot noisier, or maybe it's just me getting older.
Anyways, I'm pretty excited about the upcoming season and stay updated. I've been working on this project where it's a widget on my computer that scans the internet and sends me any updates about Duke Basketball once a week. I've been using it to:
- Monitor for when regular season tickets are coming out. I'm trying to buy the Berkeley v Duke game at Berkeley, since I live in the Bay Area now.
- Any announcements about exhibition games and the upcoming regular season.
- Monitor any updates about injuries, new recruits coming in, or just what people are talking about on social media about Duke.
Under the hood, it's pretty simple. It pretty much just works by asking ChatGPT once a week to surface any news, except it does it automatically and pops up a notification. I tried doing it on ChatGPT, but they don't do notifications, so that's why I decided to build it myself.
