The Canine Twitterer is a pet tag that automatically Tweets messages according to the animals actions at any one time. The thing works by transmitting any of 500 ‘funny’ messages via a wireless dongle attached to a laptop up to 100 feet away.
So either this thing is designed for garden use only, or you’re going to spend a lot of time chasing your dog through the streets on your skateboard carrying a computer. Great way to spam Twitter, eh? $29.95.
Tweets are sent from the tag to a USB receiver plugged into your computer up to 100′ away that automatically posts them to the Twitter account you’ve set up for your dog. Messages such as “It might look like I’m just sleeping, but I’m also working on my tan” or “Having my daily workout. Already did 15 leg lifts!” entertain dog lovers while lifting the veil on how a dog passes its time.
