Hi, This is Wayne. This is my site, my stuff, my blog, blahblahblah. The site itself is powered by WordPress and the Scary Little theme. I thought it was cool, and I still do.

I got an ad email from Thinkgeek about a really cool new shirt

wifi shirt

This really cool bad boy actually lights up when a wifi signal is near, and increases in intensity with the signal level.  It’s going near the top of my wish list.

It got me thinking about twitter, tho (and I’ve been thinking about it a LOT since joining up and playing with it).  I can see GPS-enabled twitter notifications, twitter dating, tweets helping out with disasters (like they are with the sandiego fires right now), people using tweets to help them with their dieting, humor tweets that could be subscription based, and so many other uses for twittering.

And then I thought of a shirt – the coolest shirt EVER.  The shirt would be an LCD display that would automatically display the tweets that are geographically near it.

Have you tried twitter yet?  Have you thought of some really nifty things you can do with it, or might be done in the future?

And lo, the people did comment thus:

    Twitter? I’m afraid…
    The shirt, tho’… now, that’s cool!

  2. Lynda says:

    Seems like too much work to wash that shirt.

  3. Jennefer says:

    You need a shirt that says, “I’m a Twitter” and on the back it says, “Twitters always win”

    Sue, twitter keeps getting cooler and cooler as I use it and think of new uses. But there are some fearful aspects, like if you’re not prepared for the number of SMS messages and you don’t have an unlimited plan, or if you think your tweets are private.

    Lynda, you’re probably right about that. It might need to become an “overshirt”.

    Jennefer, and you could add a little speaker that plays the Dr. Pepper theme but with the words “wouldn’t you like to be a twitter too?”

  5. Absurdist says:

    *Michelle perks up*. No yawn today. Like the shirt. Still upset that you are the only one tracking me on twitter.

  6. whall says:

    Don’t know what to tell you. I’d follow you twice if I could :)

  7. Avitable says:

    I saw that, too! I need to get one.

Want to comment?

Hey, we all want to share our voice. And I particularly love comments, especially if you took the time to read my blog entry. I'll take the time to read your comment, I swear! But due to spammers, robots, and the fact that I want my blog to be PG rated, I need to approve the comments. This should be same day, but please don't get mad if it takes me a while to approve the comment.
