Pricing before I have to authorize the app would be nice. Sure, I can change permissions later, but I'd rather not have to.

I feel the same way. I left when I saw pricing wasn't available until I signed in via Twitter.

Any chance you'll do a Pintrest version soon? Love this idea/concept.

The age of dadaism is upon us with memes and the Internet. <33

That's a really valid point delinka, hadn't considered it. Thanks for the feedback.

I haven't signed in yet, because there is no information on the web site at all. It seems unlikely that you'd ship to Europe, for example?

In any case, why not make it any timeline, not just the user's? It would make for a great gift, for example.

This is truly revolutionary. Or at least revolving.

Come back when it's realtime. (I only wipe myself with recent happenings.)

But does it support pull-to-refresh?

I'll only consider it when they implement infinite scrolling.

yes I love that the art of dada/surrealism has now just bled into everyday reality--more and more, faster and faster! it's like my dream come true :) :)

Even just the complete mainstream-ization of meme culture is doing such a wonderful service of warping the minds of humanity!

may the lulz continue ad infinitum!!!

I wonder how much it costs?

$35 for four rolls. Kinda steep, but then, it's the thought that counts.

Note that you are not restricted to using just your own tweets.

Now there's an idea! An appliance you load with regular TP which has a button you press to get a pre-configured number of one- or two-ply 4.5"x3.7" sheets, printed with very latest tweets. Connected via WiFi. Configured via an internal web server. What kind of hardware do you need to print on TP?
