Does Your Baby Have a Twitter Account?

The twoddler application is basically a Fisher Price Activity Center enhanced with pictures of family members and friends, and an Arduino board inside. All activities are captured by sensors connected to the Arduino board and are processed in two different ways: 

  • activities are translated into Twitter messages and posted on the toddler’s personal Twitter account
  • activities are send to another Activity Center and will generate effects (e.g. colored lights that blink) on your friends activity center.

Not ready for Christmas though.. read about the research here

Using Twitter to Make History.. and Create the Future. Twitter in the Classroom

@mwesch used social media tools to turn what could have been a boring university lecture class into an experience that harnessed the power of students knowledge, connections and imagination.

His views on education are refreshing. The outcome from the class is fascinating.

While watching this video, I kept thinking of more ways that a small group of people can do more than we had imagined.

I look forward to seeing your comments about how you will use this in your network, relationships, groups, business and life.

Please put your @ handle in your comment so we can follow you on Twitter.
