I'm a bit perplexed by how the city names were collected. Being Swedish, I'm used to our city names being problematic to fit into the English alphabet. Uusually 'å','ä' => 'a', 'ö' => 'o' works out quite nicely, but on this site, they'd sometimes get translated as 'ö' => 'a' or 'ä' => 'd'. It all just seemed, well, random.
Cool, but every city I tried is searching for the same shitty pop songs
I've yet to find a city that doesn't have Adele's Hello in the top 5.
Can it be twins if the relationship is only one way?
For example, New York's twin is Singapore, but Singapore's twin is Tegucigalpa in Honduras.
Are the cities always supposed to be on different continents? Because Perm, Russia and it's "twin" Homyel, Belarus are both in Europe.
Moscow's twin is a city in the Ukraine, which I suppose isn't terribly surprising. Homyel seems to come up a lot; it's also the twin of Magnitogorsk.
Someone should write a script to generate a directed graph of all of these cities; I wonder what it would look like.
Awesome! I'd love it even more if you could automatically make a Spotify playlist from the results.
