Shitter, transfer your tweets in your toilet paper!




Good news on the fans of Twitter, because thanks to the new service Shitter can now transfer their tweets in the toilet paper. This way you can read them again and again (though of course they decide to keep their shutters as decoration) and even in the field of relaxation ...




The inventive idea that belongs to a group of four developers (David, Matt, Ian and Johny) and so far is a huge hit. The service motto says it all: "Social Media has never been so disposable! "


Those interested in entering Shitter (here) via your Twitter account and choose which tweets you want to print: yours, your favorites, another user or a specific list. The cost of the service is $ 35 for four unique rolls.

Twitter released the above diagram which shows substantially the number of tweets per minute during the presentation of the new iPad.


Specifically, the company counted all the tweets from 8 am to 2 pm (local time) which contained the word 'iPad' to them. As you can see you as we approach the start of the event (10am local time) the number of tweets and begin growing.

Twitter secretly selling all tweets in advertising companies!


Most Twitter users believe that unlike Facebook is protected on privacy issues, and the tweets are visible only to those who choose.






This is to refute the recent revelation that Twitter actually keeps records of all tweets from January 2010 onwards and then sell to the British company Datasift to provide targeted ads without the knowledge of users.


What the Datasift is to analyze all daily tweets and then sells useful information on companies-customers (for example if someone mentions the name of a company or product). The information costs up to £ 10.000 per month and more than 1000 companies are currently waiting in the queue.


The Nick Pickles, leader of the team to safeguard privacy, Big Brother Watch, commented:


"Users may think that the tweets are personal property but apparently this is far from reality. It is clear that when a service is free, we are not customers but the products."
