Finally a site that is really a wo/man’s best friend
Twittergram. It’s a voice version of Twitter: You record a brief audio clip (200K max), and Twittergram puts it on a server and creates a Twitter post (a “tweet”) that links to it. Twittergrams can be posted to your own personal Twitter account as well as to a public collection of Twittergrams (mobile version).
Twittergram is a lot of fun. It could also be a very useful tool for citizen journalism.

A focus on CGI based animation with a healthy hand drawn program for balance.
Unusual & striking CGI shorts come from Tomek Baginski and LT have Mingo The Clown – the animator community’s acidic response to Bingo The Clown. There’s a good collection of PRIX ARS winners from the last 2 years and great stop motion from Peter Cornwell & Ishu Patel. The drawn section delves into surreal-sexual cowboy movies, Bukowski poems and another cut from the perspective master – Georges Schwizgebel. The 30 min surreal Japanese film “Cat Soup” will be LT’s mini feature with brand new sountrack.
All this happens on Wed July 18th from 8pm-11pm sharp, at the North Bazaar, 222 High Street Northcote (Melbourne). Free Entry,
There is free pizza in the early stages of the evening (very nice it was too) and jugs of Coopers are $10.
Your host and soundtrack alterer is DJ Delay.
See you there! www.myspace.com/loonytunesmelb.
