Twitter feeds are the new iPhone app

First there was a MySpace page, then a widget, then a Facebook app, then an iPhone app. Now the hip, new interactive advertising thing to do is add a Twitter feed. Doesn't matter what brand it is. It's got to have a Twitter feed embedded somewhere. We seem to do it to everything, and somehow everything seems cooler with a Twitter feed. (I say this wholly ironically, uniroincally and hypocritically all at the same time, having just launched two major websites in the last month that feature Twitter feeds quite prominently. In case you haven't seen one of them, check out the new http://beta.cpbgroup.com/.)

Well, I got to thinking the other day. My Twitter feed twitter.com/ievenwrotethis is pretty cool. But what would make it even cooler? That's right. Its own Twitter feed.

I give you twitter.com/heevenwrotethat. It uses a very simple bot I wrote I'm calling 2itter that retweets everything I say on my main Twitter feed over to this second Twitter feed.

BOOM. A Twitter feed of a Twitter feed. Now that's hip as hell.

And yes. The internet just got post-post-modern.
