Twaggies has a new home! Now you can find Twaggies at GoComics. Use the arrows or calendar icon to find all the Twaggies. If you create an account at GoComics, you can subscribe to get a daily Twaggie sent to you. I particularly liked this Twaggie, illustrated from a Tweet from @lunchyprices because I feel the same way in my ancient Mamabus. Link

Stealth Mountain

Posted by Miss Cellania in Blogs & Internet on January 4, 2012 at 9:16 am

Are you sad because no one ever responds to your Tweets? Here’s a sure-fire way to get a reply. Stealth Mountain describes his account as follows (I may be wrong, but the muscles on the avatar look male):

I alert twitter users that they typed sneak peak when they meant sneak peek. I live a sad life.

So all you have to do is Tweet about a “sneak peak” and the Stealth Mountain will come after you! Link -via Everlasting Blort

Kitty Twitty Cat Toy Lets Your Cat Tweet You Any Time It Wants

Posted by Alex in Animals & Pets on January 3, 2012 at 11:49 am

Marc de Vinck's wife misses her new cat when she goes to work and always bug him for updates. So what's a geek to do?

Chester is a spunky little stray who’s always looking for fun. Even if it means knocking a few things off my desk as I write this article. The only problem is, when my wife goes in to work, she misses her new cat and always wants to know his whereabouts.

She used to ask me for updates, but after a while I realized that I needed to make something that would take me out of the loop, and let the cat communicate with my wife directly via twitter.com. I needed a Twittering cat toy. And that’s how Kitty Twitty came to fruition, after some basic soldering and crafting with just a few parts.

Best of all, Marc posted the instruction on MAKE Projects so you can make your own Kitty Twitty Cat Toy: Link - via Techcrunch

Everyone Needs a Hobby

Posted by Miss Cellania in Comics & Cartoons on December 12, 2011 at 8:47 am

This Twaggie is an illustration of a Tweet by @toddlevin by Matt Lassen. When I had more free time and gas was cheaper, we’d stop at cemeteries and look for the oldest birth date and the oldest death date on a stone, so who am I to say what is morbid and what isn’t? Link

Recipe Buttons

Posted by Miss Cellania in Comics & Cartoons, Food & Drink on December 5, 2011 at 11:32 am

I had to laugh when I first saw this Twaggie posted at the Neatorama Facebook page. See, my old microwave doesn’t have recipes on the buttons (yeah, I finally got rid of my dial microwave), but my mother’s does, which confused me at first. Matt Lassen illustrated this one from at Tweet by @perlanation. Link

The Religion of Batman Via Twitter

Posted by Jill Harness in Art & Design, Comics & Cartoons on November 8, 2011 at 11:41 pm

TheBookofBatman tells the tale of The Dark Knight in the style of the bible, showing just how much of a savior Batman is to Gotham City. Finally the religion of comic book nerds has gotten the formality it deserves.

Tweet Like One Of The Mad Men


File this device under unique and useless, perfect fodder for blog posts! The device is the one and only analog Twitter client, Tweephone, and you must use the rotary dial to enter the letters, one turn at a time just like the old days.

If you have money to burn and love to Tweet then your house needs this decorative device. The rest of us will be more than happy just reading about it, i’m quite sure of that.

Company Offers to Invent Fake Girlfriend Who Will Tweet You

Posted by John Farrier in Blogs & Internet, Society & Culture on September 30, 2011 at 4:28 pm

It’s a common problem: you’d like to have a girlfriend. So you go out and meet women. And that’s when it all pretty much goes downhill.

Now there’s a solution, brought to you by software engineer Ricky Robinett. His service sends you tweets from an apparently female person who not only tolerates your company, but actually likes you. Customers can receive messages like these:

“I miss you, honey. xoxo. (:”,
“When are you going to come see me?!?! I miss you! :0)”,
“I’m lonely hehehe”,
“Why don’t you leave the boys and come hang out with me?”,
“I wish I was with you!!! (0:”,
“I just need someone to talk to… Call me?”,
“Thanks so much for the pics I’ll send some soon (:”,
“I <3 you. xoxoxoxo. <3 <3 <3 <3",
"Oh hai! (0:",
"THANKS FOR THE FLOWERS!!!"

Twitter Tales of Terrible Dates

It’s often hard to tell an interesting story in 140 characters or less, but when it comes to bad dates, that’s often all you need. BuzzFeed has a great collection of hilariously depressing bad date stories that might just make you feel better about your own sour relationships.

University Offers Scholarship for the Best Tweet

Posted by John Farrier in Blogs & Internet, Society & Culture on August 19, 2011 at 5:21 pm

A MBA program at the University of Iowa offers a $37,000 scholarship to the person who can write the best tweet. Instead of writing two essays, applicants can write one essay and one tweet:

Applicant Seth Goldstein of Columbus, Ohio, submitted his tweet last week and said he was excited for the “fun, unique challenge.”

“It is something different and out of the box,” Goldstein said. “No other MBA schools I have applied to have anything like this.”[...]

Students are encouraged to link to their blogs, videos, Facebook accounts or anything else that may help answer the question: “What makes you an exceptional Tippie Full-time MBA candidate and future MBA hire?”

If you thought that The Terminator was destroyed by molten steel and an illegitimate baby scandal and it wouldn’t “be back” you are wrong. The Terminator is apparently taken to social media in its never ending quest to find Sarah Conner. The Twitter user @111001001101010 is posting updates tweeting at different persons named Sarah still in search of the elusive Conner.

A LOL Confession

Yes, we know that “lol” usually means something is supposed to be funny, and we assume that you are not, in fact, laughing out loud. Nothing new. Still, I found the concept chosen for illustrating this Twaggie to be nonsensically humorous. Link
