Take a Peek – Twitter Style!

While the Twitterverse continues to grow, those doing the tweeting have for the most part, been focused on the software component which allows the microblogging service to establish its role as an essential tool in our daily dialogues.

The folks at Twitter however, have been looking at yet another side of the Twitter equation, and that is hardware – hardware that will continue fleshing out all that is Twitter.

Someday, that may mean scales that tweet that it’s time to cut back on the carbs, tweets that prod us to begin preparing our taxes, home fire detectors that will send us a tweet when it’s time to change batteries…you get the idea.

But today, the first product to roll off the Twitter hardware conveyor belt launches – and it’s Twitter Peek!

Aimed at gadget geeks, teenagers, twitter addicts, and maybe those not inclined to twitter from a smartphone or fully powered computer, Twitter Peek isn’t shy.

Stylin’ in Twitter Blue, coming in at what the manufacturer considers to be an affordable price point, and offering all things Twitter 24/7, the new gadget is being hyped as an integral part of Twitter’s mobile platform.

Naysayers describe Tweet Peek as the latest application in ‘Tweet Creep.”

Undoubtedly, sales figures will determine the distinction.
