The World's Largest Twitter Client

Using the playhouse app platform, Tim Redfern has built what is probably the world's largest twitter client. To get your tweets broadcast on liberty hall just put in the #playtweet hashtag into your twitter message. Your message will stream across the top marquee and your profile picture will bounce up onto the main display. Messages will be moderated and will be streamed to the building from tonight until Sunday. Check out the test display broadcast last night:

As always, in between the twitter messages the user generated animations will still be displayed. Here's a nice youtube video showcasing some great animations, if you haven't seen the building yet:
