March 21st, 2007

Just take a look at this Google Maps/Twitter mashup, and then tell me we are not incredibly lucky to be alive at a time when things like this actually exist.

    Pre-emptive strike here… Please don’t tell BobCat that “jumped the shark” has jumped the shark because telling people that jumped the shark has jumped the shark has itself jumped the shark.

    Yeah JoCo, what’s your account? You can’t post a Twitter link and then not reveal your username!

    I agree with “minimo”! Besides, give this thing a couple of weeks and it will be hijacked by advertisers and marketers, just like MySpace.
