twit.jpgKate Green has written an article for Technology Review on “Radio Twitter” — Tune In to Radio Twitter: A student project sorts tweets by sentiment and puts them on a radio

Mark McKeague, a student at Queen’s University Belfast, has invented a radio that tunes in to and broadcasts messages posted on the social-networking site Twitter. In addition, the tweets are sorted by sentiment, such as happy or sad, based on their content. McKeague, who studies music technology, has created an interactive version of this radio twitter that allows people to listen to messages posted on the website in real time ….

For an interview with McKegue and a quick listen to Radio Twitter, go here.

    If I ‘ve well understood it’s same to scan Youtube videos on a TV set. I dont’ understand where is the great idea. Different things to receive a phone call on a PC and directly translated in txt and may be in different languages…..or may be that I’vce not understood the meaning of Radio Twitter.
