SocialComicBook.com - Twitter Meets Flickr in Comic Hit

By now if you haven’t heard of Twitter, you probably live under a moss covered rock. But don’t worry there’s plenty of time to get caught up. The Twitter phenomenon seems to have no end. Apps keep popping up around the thing. Now there’s the Twitter Comic Book which combines our favorite light blogging application with our favorite photo site Flickr, creating an amusing, comic mashup. Flickr photos are pulled based on the themes of your tweets. What you end up with is a tableau of sorts, a miscellany of photo images to go with the miscellany of your tweets. To create your own comic, simply enter your Twitter user name and watch what comes out. If that’s not motive enough for you to join the Twitter ranks, maybe you should keep your luddite head hidden from sight.

“The images are in this comic are selected from flickr based on the twitters of the user. They are not hand selected either”

A Twitter Comic is rather ingenious. It combines two very popular applications and makes them all the more interesting. It’s entertaining. You’ll get grin out of it. Super easy to use, no brain work involved.

Will the site add widgets or means to pass on your comic to friends? How are pictures pulled? What tweets are used? Why aren’t all squares filled with pictures?
