Post Twitter now begs us to become fat

Twitter is poised to remake our world. A new area of focus: local bakeries. These bakeries have a problem. They have fresh stuff coming out of the oven all day long, yet people don't know exactly when. Enter Twitter. Courtesy of digital agency Poke, BakerTweet sends out a message whenever fresh goods pop out of the oven. Poke set up a handful of London-area bakeries with receivers to partially automate the process. The idea is, it's a cheap way for them to promote their products, although I wonder just how many Tweets about scones and buns people want to read. Check it out in action at the Twitter feed of Albion's Oven.

No, this is not an April Fool's joke. I was alerted to this by Miss Alli/Linda Holmes on her NPR blog. WHAT IS THIS. This is insanity, Twitter updates all day long for DESSERTS? What on earth.
