    If (and its a big if) this took off it would kill twitter. The most tweeted thing would be "computer booted successfully". Exciting times...

    nothing wrong, it's just a failed attempt at innovation.

    i built a meshed sensor network in my group project last year, MEMs people built an energy harvester, my MCP team of 3 built really energy efficient meshed sensor network to sense hazards gas in air ducts using only harvested energy. the proof of concept product was brilliant, it worked and the central node PC collected data over night successfully. :D

    So the % of tweets that are actually useful is going to increase?

    If only Twitter's servers used MeshCentral to report their status to Twitter this disaster could have been averte.... oh, wait. Never mind.

    Last year I saw a news report about a guy who hooked up his house to Twitter. So if his burglar alarm goes off, it Twitters, if his fridge gets warmer, it Twitters, etc ... is this a similiar thing to what he did? Sounds like it.

    Incidentally is my computer going to report stuff like "by Leveller_PC: IE9 crashed while fetching HTTP://www.goatsepoon.com/index.html"?

    Grrrrrreat!
