funny by accident. http://shanaray.posterous.com social media, tech, food and wine in a world that takes itself too seriously. posterous.com Sun, 19 Jul 2009 23:27:00 -0700 yet another 3rd party twitter app. http://shanaray.posterous.com/yet-another-3rd-party-twitter-app http://shanaray.posterous.com/yet-another-3rd-party-twitter-app

twibbon.com is a site where anyone can create a cause worthy Twitter image overlay.  A great idea for people to show their support for an organization, or an awesome wine conference coming up.  So, Wine Blogger Conference attendees, please add this image to your Twitter profile by clicking on the widget (okay widget failed, please click on the link) below and adding your Twitter info!

My only problem with it is that it makes the image smaller, but even so, I see potential in organizing the masses behind one cause (i.e., LIVESTRONG)

Wow.  Such a simple thing as a one click button to change my Twitter avatar has caused me to go back over nine years ago to when my friend Hudson lost his battle with Cancer.   It was just a year after he was supposed to walk across the stage with us at graduation (yes, my 10 year reunion is coming up in August) and he was my first true experience dealing with death.

Anyone who knows me, knows that my sarcasm is a bit over abundant (that is me putting it nicely) and his wit and sarcasm could beat me every time.  Below is an image that made it to our High School yearbook when we together won the title as biggest flirts, i.e., MOST LIKELY TO BE SUED FOR SEXUAL HARASSMENT. :)

The Livestrong Organization has been a big part of Cause Marketing via social networking and they just started a campaign where Twitter members can overlay their avatars with one click on  http://livestrongaction.org/avatar.  What an amazingly simplistic and powerful symbol to show your support for those living with Cancer and bring the issue to the fore-front.  

Here's to the Livestrong team, Lance Armstrong, the 28 million living with Cancer and anyone that enjoys sarcasm!
