If you thought the downfall of Twitter began when Oprah said it was the best thing ever, well, you're probably right, but this latest toy from Mattel (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/26/puppy-tweets-lets-your-puppy-tweet/) won't help to improve the situation. It's called Puppy Tweets, a little clasp that hangs from your pooch's collar and detects what it's up to -- presumably making wild guesses based on accelerometer and microphone readings. It was announced last month (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/26/puppy-tweets-lets-your-puppy-tweet/) and is being shown off at the NY Toy Fair, where Mattel is pledging it can detect 500 different activities and turn them into 140-character witticisms, like: "It's not the catching of the tail, it's the chase," and "Guess what I'm licking right now." Yep, a real product, and $30 will get you yours in either pink or blue.Puppy Tweets will turn your Pooper into a world-class twitterer (http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/13/puppy-tweets-will-turn-your-pooper-into-a-world-class-twitterer/) originally appeared on Engadget (http://www.engadget.com) on Sat, 13 Feb 2010 15:48:00 EST.
