So they went out and tweeted lots of insightful things! No, of course not. They just created the most worthless Twitter account of all time.
Rambler shoes (http://gizmodo.com/tag/ramblershoes/) come equipped with a sensor that knows when you're walking, and a Bluetooth hookup to a cellphone that tweets each stride.

So yes, basically, Rambler throws tainted meat on a big steaming pile of garbage and calls it "commentary." Next time just clean the garbage up, people!
