This is another example of a great project that uses social networking crowd-sourcing. I re-discovered this while looking through my Twitter following list. Check it out:
Vimeo: please specify correct url
The project gathers @replies and mentions from Twitter, and displays an animation on a giant screen mounted on a building based on users’ tweets. (When it first came out, it was mounted in London, but now, it’s looking for a place to stay.)
How it works
You send an @reply to its Twitter account, @thehellowall, using a combination of the following commands:
- circle
- square
- rectangle
- triangle
- shake
- faster
- slower
- bigger
- smaller
- And HTML colors.
A command could look like this:
@thehellowall White circles bigger
The Wall will interpret your command, and display it instantly. It’s that simple!
