I found this nice project by Tom Armitage. He connected The Tower Bridge with the popular micro-blogging Service Twitter:
“Twitter is a free social networking and micro-blogging service that allows users to send “updates” (or “tweets”; text-based posts, up to 140 characters long) to the Twitter web site, via the Twitter web site, or a third-party application such as Twitterrific or Facebook.”
(via Wikipedia)
It tells you when it’s opening and closing, what vessel is passing through, and which way that vessel is going.”
In his post he ponited to another approach of making buildings or constructions talk on twitter. It is quite funny to see how huge buildings or objects blogging in a personal way…
If you are a bridge It is kind of boring to let people know what you are donig all the day long. Open…close…open…close…
- What do you have to tell if you are a bridge?
