As of next Tuesday, November 17, you’ll be able to access Twitter and Facebook on your Xbox 360. The software update is free, like previous updates, and also includes Last.fm and Zune video compatibility. “What are you doing?” “Losing to 12-year-olds in Modern Warfare 2 over and over again! Not fun.”

It’s finally here! Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is finally legally available in the US through special midnight release parties tonight. People can’t seem to stop tweeting about the game, as “Modern Warfare 2″ is now a trending topic on Twitter. Whether people have already gotten the game or are waiting in ridiculously long lines, people have something to say about CoD:MW2.

Continuing our ongoing coverage of the Miley Cyrus Twitter Crisis of 2009 (hint: she quit), here’s a video from last night’s Late Night With Jimmy Fallon in which the host plays dress up as Billy Ray Cyrus to make his own rap video.

You’ll recall that Miley Cyrus quit Twitter (because her boyfriend told her to, or something). She then made a mock rap video about it. Now, Fallon is making fun of that video, Billy Ray, and Twitter all in one fell swoop. Impressive.

What’s all this nonsense about professional athletes getting into trouble over what they say on Twitter (or whatever other site)? The NFL, which, as we all know, stands for the No Fun League, freaked out after Robert Henson, of the Washington Redskins, tweeted a few choice words to critical fans last week. Things like “All you fake half hearted Skins fan can .. I won’t go there but I dislike you very strongly, don’t come to Fed Ex to boo dim wits!!” and “The question is who are you to say you know what’s best for the team and you work 9 to 5 at Mcdonalds.” I say good for Mr. Henson. Fans can get away with murder, but the man cannot speak his mind? Lame.

Now this is the type of radio a fancy gentleman would use. It’s the latest PURE Sensia, a touchscreen European radio that supports FM, DAB (and DAB+), and Internet radio. There’s also Wi-Fi and “widgets,” I guess, for sites like Facebook and Twitter.

Holy smokes, someone from Microsoft just tweeted a Tweet that has everyone jumping around like they just don’t care! The tweet reads: “Good things are worth the wait… http://bit.ly/win741 will go live soon with all the details of the $29.99 deal. ^MS” What does that mean?! Windows 7 Home Premium for college students~! Woooo~!

Did you happen to catch Fringe last night? Apparently – I missed it – Fox decided that it would be hip to superimpose a Twitter feed on top of the picture. Well, the Internet has spoken and no one likes it. Oh, and it’s going to happen again tonight during Glee.

Unlike some people around these parts, I loves me some Twitter (psst, follow me.) Thing is, just about every time I get a chance to tweet, I can’t. Maybe my hands are covered in grease as I’m stuffing my face with a delicious burger; maybe I just don’t want to come home from a long day of blogging and have to squeeze my thoughts into 140 characters with my iPhone’s made-for-babies keyboard.

Voice recognition Twitter apps are intriguing, but none of the major Twitter clients have it yet (as far as I know), and I’m just not hardcore enough to drop money on any apps that might offer voice-tweeting as its sole functionality. Fortunately, an already worthwhile app has come along and solved all my problems via upgrade.

We all know and love Fake Steve Jobs, right? We all know that Linux users copy everything that Mac OSX and Windows do, right? So it should come as no surprise that the Linux Foundation is copying Fake Steve in their new Fake Linux Torvalds competition! Not content with a single fake Linus Torvalds, there will be four fake Linus Torvaldses (Torvaldi?)! And in true Linux geek fashion, the competition will take place on both Twitter and identi.ca, the free software micro-blogging alternative!

Yup, you can now tweet God, as it were. There’s a Twitter account,@thekotel, that takes your tweets, prints them out, then takes ‘em to the Western Wall in Jerusalem.

Twitter. Twitter? Twitter! TWITTER! Yes, the world’s most important Web site has been co-opted by evildoers, being used to control personal information-stealing botnets.

Twitter was down for a little while yesterday (it’s still a little iffy), and it was the closest the United States of America has ever come to collapsing.

Years ago, London ruled one-fourth of the world’s population. Now? Training its civil servants how to tweet “issues of relevance or upcoming events.”

This is Kevin Spacey. He’s a man who gets paid millions of dollars to pretend to be other men, for entertainment. And here he is on the “Late Show With David Letterman” trying to explain Twitter, the pulse of the planet, to Mr. Letterman.

As if the world needed more microblogging services we present the Socialtext Microbloggin Appliance, a rack server that basically builds out social networking and microblogging applications instantly inside an Intranet. Instead of relying on outside services like Yammer, Facebook, and AdultFriendFinder, your employees can tweet or whatever you want to call it all from the comfort of your offices and you have complete control of the drivel they spew.

The device costs $1 per user per month along with a small$1000 fee for the appliance. You can also try their Free 50 offer right now if your unsure if you want to allow this sort of frippery on your plant floor.
