A Twitter Marriage Proposal

Text messaging is so old school. Be all high-techie-like and propose marriage via Twitter. Ultimate geek!
Grant Robertson proposed to his girlfriend Christina Warren today using Twitter. With 1,221 and 4,248 followers respectively, it was a risky move. However, they already have a ring picked out, so I suspect they had a previous private discussion. See the public tete-a-tete on grobertson's and film_girl's twitter pages.

p.s. I don't know this couple. I do, however, know a few people who live in Atlanta. Poor things.

I've been cheating on you, Blogger. With Twitter.

I have a confession to make, Google Blogger: I've been cheating on you. Sometimes I just don't have time for what our relationship requires. Yet, I still have needs. That's when I turn to Twitter for a quickie.

Information which can be fit into 140 characters (including spaces) are making their way online via "tweets" these days rather than full-on blog posts. Visitors to this blog page can see my Twitter updates, however RSS readers do not.

To get the full meal deal, "follow" me on Twitter. I'm at http://twitter.com/JeanineA And if you have/get a Twitter account, I'll follow you back.

Too Cute: Shiba Inu Puppy Cam has Twitter updates

Have you been checking in on the Shiba Inu puppy cam? Cute puppy addicts, you can now get puppy updates on Twitter. Follow Pupdate and you'll be alerted if the pups wake up and start doing something. (They sure do sleep a LOT.)

The Pupdate Twitter account just started today and sprang from a casual suggestion from Alexis Madrigal (via Twitter, of course), a writer for Wired Magazine. The Pupdate account is run by a virtual puppy watcher and not the owner of the puppies.

No guarantee on the frequency or quality of the tweets, folks. But it is an interesting use of Twitter, all the same.
