Alright, I'm trying really hard not to say "OMG - copy what these guys are doing" but seriously - I am seeing some cool stuff today and I gotta share. cheese If any of the admin/ moderators/popchix are going to cool gaming conventions like E3 (we know Kitty is), it might be cool for them to do the occasional tweets about what's going on (Kitty is currently doing this at E3 this year - kudos to her!! - http://www.twitter.com\kittychix for anyone who wants to follow). But I have to admit I have a slight problem - I can't really twitter at work. :( Some of a few things I'm seeing other game sites doing:

1) Live twitter feeds on their website. One game site I frequent is doing this. I'm sure it's some plug in app they have installed on their web server, but they have this small area on their site (the homepage is a kinda dashboard view) that has a small widget that shows twitter feeds for what they're doing at E3 this year (they have the same thing posted in a forum thread). I think this is awesome - very cool if more than one popchix admin is tweeting (you'd see all their tweets in that widget) and would give more visibility to other popchix that something is going on. (And more work friendly for some of us)

2) Post voice messages using http://audioboo.fm/ Just. saw some guy using this (he basically recorded a voice msg about what's going on, and tweeted a link to his audioboo msg). I believe they have an app that installs on your phone.

I'll update as I see more coolness today...

I like the twitter idea 1up. I messed around with Audioboo a bit, but I lost most of my voice after day 2, (too much talking!!) so I decided against subjecting to you my hoarse and cracking sounds..
