I’m not a Twitter addict – although I do have an account – so I might be wrong on this one, but will a device that only sends and receives tweets be worth buying? That’s what Peek is counting on as is launches the TwitterPeek. Much like their one-trick ponies Peek & Peek Pronto, which…

You read it right: the iconic clock tower is on Twitter. Guess what it tweets?

It is a clock after all. Although I think it could also be looking to get high. It looks like it’s getting more and more desperate by the hour too.

Twitter or World of Warcraft? What’s a well-connected gamer to choose? Oh, listen, no one’s saying that you can’t juggle your iPhone and your mouse at the same time as is, but shouldn’t it be easier to raid while keeping up with your tweets? It just got easier, folks, thanks to TweetCraft.

TweetCraft is an…

Evil Mad Scientist Labs have turned their open-source hand-held gaming platform, the Meggy Jr RGB, into a one-line Twitter reader. The Meggy Jr RGB is connected to a computer running a program that detects Twitter updates and then sends “”scrolling” data” one line at a time. The platform will cycle through 5 of the most…

If you use Twitter, odds are you occasionally inform your poor followers of some business that just really doesn’t matter. (How’s your sandwich, by the way?) Why not keep them updated on something that might actually matter, like your heart rate?

Thanks to a bunch of Japanese Twitter-lovers, anyone willing to use a heart monitor can…

Yes, this is what HDTVs are for:…

What would happen if Pac-Man was on twitter? A whole lot of trouble, that’s what.

I laughed my ass off when I saw this hysterical illustration by Scott Hampson. Scott, will you please make T-shirts out of these? I’ll be first on your list.

In the post-apocalyptic world of 2018, mankind is nearly eradicated; the literally cold and heartless Skynet computer system is so ruthless and intelligent – except for the fact that it has a logo. What for? To market itself? How about you stop killing your customers first? – and is on the verge of debuting a…

Listen up, gaming cakes, you’re gonna have to be careful–there’s a new contender in town: the twake. That’s Twitter cake if you’re not trying to save on characters, and it’s the new birthday sensation. See? Twitter really is taking over the world.

Not only does this particular cake offer up birthday wishes properly (happy belated, @GDruckman!),…

A long long time ago, way back in 2006, Twitter burst onto the blogging scene and introduced microblogging, forcing people to post messages that can’t be longer than 140 characters. But the people behind Twitter grossly overestimated our reading capacity, and now a new trend, nanoblogging, is going to cash in on that. Or so…

If you’re the type to put clothes into the wash and then forget to take them out again, there may just be a solution. Too busy mucking about in the living room to remember your clothes? No problem; there’s an alarm that sounds, annoyingly, as a reminder. Can’t tear yourself away from the computer? No…
