Thread: Puppy Tweets - or twitter for man's best friend

The toy maker Mattel announced that it's on its way to launch a new product called "Puppy Tweets", that will connect dogs to their own Twitter account.

Puppy Tweets is a plastic tag that has sound and motion sensor, and once attached to a dog collar and connected to a USB receiver, it will send the puppy tweets. Of course, the pet owner has to first create a Twitter account for his best friend.
The tag has a number of pre-recorded tweets, that get activated according to the dog's activities. For example, if your dog would be running around, the tweet might be something like "I finally caught that tail I've been chasing and OOUUCHH!", because we all know that's in the dog's head in that moment :)

Puppy Tweets will released this fall, with a price of $29.99. Answers for questions like if there will be a similar product for cats, or if Puppy Tweets could alert the dog's owner is his puppy is messing around in the house, are still unknown.

that idea is barking mad :)
