In the USA, a Twitter nerd called Sam Potts has started a very odd free service for the Twitterati called Twitter on Paper. You send him a tweet and he writes it on a piece of paper and posts it to you. Here is what they look like:
It seems Potts stamps them with the date, like they used to do in libraries back in the old days. Why he’s doing this, we’re not entirely sure. So far, Sam will only post tweets within the US, so it’s virtually useless for Australians unless you feel the need to send friends or relatives in America your tweets.
Question: is Potts making a statement about the absurdity of Twitter?
