Tweet140.com - Get Your Twoosh On

A “Twoosh” is the sound that Twitter makes each time someone sends a tweet that’s exactly 140 characters long. For those who derive some odd satisfaction from hearing a twoosh, or for those who simply enjoy a challenge, Tweet140.com will track the length of your tweets and tally how many times you hit the 140 mark exactly. The closer your average character count is to 140, the better your score on Tweet140.com. You could consider it a personal challenge, or compete against friends for the best average. There is no signing-up necessary – you simply start following tweet140 from your Twitter account, and the program will automatically start tracking how many characters you use in each tweet sent. Under the default settings, you will receive a DM from tweet140 every three days or ten tweets (whichever is longer), to report your average. You can change your settings to receive you scores via DM more or less frequently.

 
  In their own words  

"Why does the world need this? As a matter of fact, it doesn't. It's a dumb game, but we're madly obsessed with numbers so had to build it. We also wanted to test the API.”

  Why it might be a killer  

Tweet140 is cost-free, registration-free, and could catch on with those who are already using Twitter and just want a little extra challenge or a new diversion to amuse them.

  Some questions  

How many people will actually be interested in the Tweet140 game? Could the site offer prizes to add some incentive for joining the site and sticking around long enough to build a strong average? Does the site have any plans to ad advertisements or a donation link or otherwise bring in any income?
