Are you not receiving your tweet notifications as loud and obnoxiously as you could be? The Twitwee Clock is here to make sure you do not lose your social network guru status by giving you a minor heart attack every time someone sends a new tweet, re-tweets, or does anything else on Twitter. I wonder how you'll feel about that iconic blue bird after days of it incessantly squawking at you.
Wondering how something as ancient looking as the Twitwee Clock can keep you updated on such a modern technology? Designer Haroon Baig has enabled it to connect to the Internet using Chumby, a "hardware open source platform" that runs in lieu with a Linux operating system. That's one high-tech pigeon!
