Tweety-fucking-tweet.NERD ALERT: Oh hey do you like the new Internet fad of the Twitter? Well, your Wonkette has been on the Twitter for a while now, but it never really, uh, worked. (We blame past management.) Now it works! We still have no idea what the Twitter does, but 550 people have subscribed to it, even though it didn’t work, so now everybody can unsubscribe, the end.

  1. They have the Twitter on the Internets now???

  2. The tubes have been unclogged

    All this new shit makes me feel about as tech-saavy as Ted Stevens.

  4. Strictly for the Tardcore says at 4:58 pm, September 22nd, 2008

    Yay. I guess.

  5. Must be some thing John McCain invented.

    So, rather than just reading Wonkette, I can read it via Twitter?

    Twitter = Electronic version of toe tap.

  9. No offence, but this is a really bad way to use Twitter. If I wanted your RSS feed tweeted at me, I could arrange that. I’d prefer if you funny folks would tweet pithy, 140-character doses of snark about politics using your twitter account instead. That would be way cooler.

    I for one, welcome the new Twitter overlords.
    When the time is right, they will reveal their master
    plan for the human race.
    Klaatu. Barada. Nikto.

    Actually, if you link your Twitter to the rss of the Digg and sync that to the Flickr account using your Pandora cast by tagging it your Facebook vlog by IM’ing a Second Life avatar, then it should let you drill down to the shower cloud of the social network community and leverage the paradigm shift. But, most of you probably already knew that.

    I’m sure it involves porn. I mean, “twitter,” jesus, that’s like calling something the porny boob dickalator, or something like that.

  13. Condiments-Only Diet says at 8:27 pm, September 22nd, 2008

    Beef Supreme: Winner

  14. I refuse it.

  15. Beef Supreme: If science can’t tag bad molecules, then this twitter thing can never work. It’s god will it didn’t work with wonkette for so long. Now god intends for it to work - its in the bible, I think page 215

  16. Jayzuuz.
    Can we now get Wonkette:
    1. Diamond Whore futures.
    2. Palin pregnant daughter puts.
    3. Calls on Jim Newell rants?
    The future is bright with this new communication technology. Garbage in and … even more garbage in. If only I didn’t have just a landline.

    Seldo: Send one-billion Golden Ameros and maybe we’ll hire some monkey to type quips for the Twitter. Meanwhile …

    Beef Supreme: And finally, we can all die. Right?? Please?

    Wonkette has never updated properly in my feed reader — usually just lists the feature stories under the logo. I choose to regard it in the light of the Zen precept that true perfection incorporates some imperfections.

    Beef Supreme: I think my token ring just got lost in the ethernet.

  20. Ken Layne: I’ll give you one British pound. That’s equivalent, right?
