There's a service called ifft that allows users to set up automated actions (e.g. email when rain is due tomorrow, message when a new free Amazon app is put up.). I saw two funny Twitter accounts today that use this service:
Fucking Raining: "I exist to tell you when it's fucking raining in fucking London."
Potty Bot: "I get sweary when The Archers comes on BBC Radio 4."
A third account, which I presume is automated but which may not be, is
Stealth Mountain: "I alert twitter users that they typed sneak peak when they meant sneak peek."
Many users reply when Stealth Mountain corrects them, and the list of responses is funny, too.
This is bloody brilliant. How can I get me one of those Potty Bots?!
