I’ve had this Minority Report style vision of somebody arriving home, pouring themselves a drink, plonking down on a couch and watching a big screen of his friends’ twitter updates. Which naturally made me think that Twitter in screensavers would a be a good idea.

Obviously this cannot be a new idea. A quick Google reveals the obvious (D’oh).

But still, I think the concept can be pushed if enhanced by beautiful design. Tweets appearing coloured bubbles according to the emotion contained within, or the friend’s gender or relationship to you.

Could also be an amazing installation at a party. Get people’s twitter feeds up in a club or other venue and people can communicate across a room. People could even wear their twitter names on T-shirts to facilitate flirting
