Odd Uses For Twitter, From Farting Office Chairs to Tweeting Kitties

Let Ashton Kutcher go for his million followers so he can punk CNN’s founder Ted Turner. I’m busy following some kitties that come and go and Tweet me when and why, or the office chair that lets me know when it’s been farted on. I follow a commercial bakery oven that lets me know when there are fresh baked goods, and a washer that Tweets when the load is finished. Do the plants need water? They tweet me. Follow people? Nah, they usually don’t have much to say, but following animals and technology? Now that’s useful.
