Like Pop-Up Video, But For Twitter!

Squidder's Twitter Feed augmented reality t-shirt allows your tweets to have a little more impact in the real world. Printed on the front of the shirt is a special marker (almost like a bar code) that contains your Twitter user name. When an "appropriate sensing device" (phone, laptop) is pointed at it, your Twitter update will virtually appear.

Oh the things you can do with 140 characters...

Those Are as Good as Money, Sir...

Ah, the ol' beer I.O.U. "C'mon, help me do ________" and I will buy you a few beers. Unfortunately there hasn't been a way to keep anyone accountable...until now.

Foamee is a free service that allows users to keep track of who they owe beers to (and vice versa). It is based around Twitter so each person must already have a Twitter account. I can already see a trend of other Twitter "applications" whereby more and more people will start following random companies and personalities. There is a woman who is trying to lose 10 pounds and she is seeking support from the Twitter community. With 201 followers so far, it's not a huge number, but it is interesting to see how people are responding to someone that they don't know much about (just 140 character snippets every now and then).
